Re: 2003 Town Car Transmission Shudder

Flush your fluid before replacing parts since it has not been changed in a long time. You can likely get away with just this. But like I posted above, be sure to get as much of the old fluid out as you can to make it a successful flush!

Either pay a bunch of money for T-Tec flush, or drop the pan, drop the valve body, and (if able) drain the torque converter at home on ramps or jack stands for under $100.
