Wow all this info about servicing the trans and at such close intervals (like 15000 miles) just blew me away.
I yanked out the ops manual on the 2012 F 250 and it specifies the first change at 90K. If it is good enough for Henry, it is good enough for me. :h
However I concede that if you don't wear out the drain plug or the pan bolts it won't hurt s thing. :W
The Allison with Duramax is 97,500 miles. My Malibu is 60,000. I did the truck at 32,000 because I had time. The Caprice which was supposed to be a police car with a 6L80E has an interval of 100,000 or 45,000 for severe, which would have been police service. I did it at 45,000 because it is Cammed and Stalled. The 6L90E used in only 2500HD and 3500HD has a 45,000 service as it assumed you will be using the severe service interval. It has no external filter like the Allison, so you should change it more frequently.
Is your truck a diesel?
