Aside from being remiss (negligent?) on changing my tranny fluid, I wanted to understand some of the experiences folks have had with theirs.
This tranny is reported to be sealed with "lifetime" fluid, but i dont believe it.
Even though i am late in my maint. schedule, i want to know what fluid is supposed to be used to replace it.
No fluid i know of is rated at lifetime, so when i do replace it plus the filter, i want to get whatever special kind of fluid the unit needs, so i dont give myself problems.
mind you, i have no shift problems at this time, just a little pan gasket leak.
figured i could replace filter/gasket/fluid in one operation, but where to put the new fluid in? how much?
Can i trust a tranny shop to use the right stuff or should i prescribe them what to use.
Grrrrrrr........too many things to sort out and I want to get it right so i can drive it another 100K
