Ok so I have wanted to change the transmission fluid in my 08 F150 FX4 through the trans cooler lines at the front on the truck for awhile but I am really paranoid about this screwing up my trans after I do it since it has 98k on it. I did a pan drop and filter change at 88k ish then refilled with valvoline mercon v. I have a couple jugs of Valvoline Maxlife multi vehicle atf and I was told it can replace mercon v. I am really wondering if I do the method by un doing my cooler lines and running them to a bucket, start the truck pump out 3 quarts the stop and refill 3 quarts and repeat till it have done the whole trans which it holds 13.9 quarts if this will put a "shock" on the trans and then create failure not longer after down the road. I hear horror stories about these ford transmissions, and my mechanic buddy advised me against it. But I want to keep the truck for the long haul and get the most life out of the transmission as I can. What are you guys advice? I know there are some Ford experts around here. As always thanks!
