I waited until the rain stopped, removed two wires and two bolts and it came gently out. Quite a dream. I don’t know what I was worried about.
thanks to all.

Make sure you check the fluid while the engine is warm and running. Next I would suggest you use a product from lucas oil called transmission fix. It really helps with transmission slipping and conditions all the seals and gears of the transmission. I had a 2000 taurus with the same problem, i used the product as was recommended by a friend, and I got about another 50,000 miles out of the transmission with no problems. If that doesnt help you are probably looking at around 1500 dollars to replace the tranny. Very good car, I would keep it for now. Hope this helps!

You failed to mention the miles and have you had it regularly serviced.Number one killer of any transmission.30K miles it sholud be serviced.
Doing so may help save it.And use "Lucus" product it works
Good luck !!!
