The 2004 Ford Explorer originally came equipped with a 5-speed 5R55 automatic transmission. This particular transmission has a reputation for its longevity and is expected to function without needing any rebuilding or replacement for over 200,000 miles. For optimal performance, it is recommended to use Motorcraft Mercon V automatic fluid. The transmission requires a total fluid capacity of 13.9 US quarts, making it quite costly to fill up. The estimated cost for the fluid ranges between $70 and $110, which is still more economical compared to the $220 to $280 you would likely pay if you opt to have a mechanic handle it.
