Bulletin Summary

When replacing the transmission case on a 2020-2022 F-Super Duty equipped with a 10R140 transmission, the new service case may not come equipped with the transmission fluid leveling plug. To achieve proper transmission fluid level, a new transmission fluid pan and gasket must be installed (service part PC3Z-7A194-A). Refer to the 2023 F-Super Duty Workshop Manual, Section 307-01B to properly set the transmission fluid level when using the newer transmission fluid pan.

About Technical Service Bulletins

A Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) is a document issued by a vehicle manufacturer to its dealers, describing a known issue with a specific vehicle or set of vehicles and the recommended procedure to fix it. Unlike recalls, TSBs are not mandatory and are typically only performed if an owner reports the related issue. However, TSBs can be an indicator of common problems with a vehicle.
