Hi All: My brother has a 99 Crown Vic. I warned him that the trany fluid and filter needs to be changed at 30k miles to avoid the dreaded transmission shudder problem which is common on these cars. He claims he had it done, but the Bosos that did the work probalby ripped him off. They porbably said they did it, charged him but didn't do it. Anyway, he now has a problem with transmission shudder. The car has 38 K miles on it. He was going to look into warrantee coverage from Ford but I am not very hopeful. Does anyone know what it costs to repair the problem? I think it is related to the locking torque converter clutch. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Robert
