Can you tell us how many miles you had on the trans filter and how it looked. Mine have always looked okay after 70,000 to 80,000 miles.
The filter looked OK and the fluid wasn't too bad. We bought the truck used and based on the condition I'm assuming it was replaced at some point given we're at 90k+.Blacklane wrote:
I've done this a few times. It can be an awful mess. I recommend a big piece of cardboard under the pan to absorb the drips, which are everywhere.
I used a mortar pan to catch fluid and still ended up with some spots in the driveway. It is a messy job for sure.
Thanks for the follow up. My filters always look okay too but by the time you can see it you might as well change it. I too feel the flust is more important then the filter.
