You can drop the pan and change the filter no problem, and that will usually force you to replace a couple of quarts. You can't flush a 4R70W without a machine hooked into it though (you'll never get all the fluid out by just gravity). Usually the filter change is what does the trick though (they get dirty pretty fast, you're supposed to change them every 25K).
and while you're in there, you can do a J-mod in an extra two hours time.
I'm going to use GRM's new word, maintainify!
you unbolt your valvebody from the transmission. There is a plate under it with a bunch of holes in it. You run a drill bit through a half dozen of them. Reassemble. When you're done, the transmission shifts like you just poured a RedBull down the dipstick tube. The shifts are firmer and faster. I was nervous to make mine too harsh, no such problem. They should have come this way from the factory. You can find the proceedure on crownvic.net
