post your latest transmission lubricant change.

[JeffKeryk]

Friend's 2014 Corolla S, 191K, 35K OCI, almost 3 years.
Measured 2 qt drain, added 2.5 qts and did the dribble test using a cheapo temp gun.

This is the 2nd time I serviced it since he bought it used. Fluid looked good; smooth going into gear.
Toyota should have a simple dip stick. The top of the fluid is the top of the fluid.

Vac sucked just under 3 qts out of the Altima today and refilled with the same amount of Aisin NS-3 fluid (blue color). Mileage just over 50k.

Did 1.5 qts today. All the NS-3 i had left. Easy as pie.

Yesterday I did a drain and fill on both of my Ford Fusions. I have used for at least 300K Mobil 1 ATF in my 2007 Fusion with 337K. In my 2017 Fusion with the 6F35 transmission (192K) I use Mobil 1 LV HP ATF. Both transmission still shift great up and down and have never had any problems with either transmission.

Last week wife's 19 Pilot EX-L. It got a new converter under warranty. I did a 3x D&F with HPL LV to get rid of the DW-1 that didn't hold up to heat and normal use prior. Also hooked up the factory add on cooler again, replaced factory filter for Magnefine and disabled VCM again.

I'll monitor as months go on but if getting higher in traffic, light towing I'll add a second cooler in line with thermal bypass that actually gets fan air flow. Normal trips so far has only gotten to 160F around town and dropped to under 150F on highway. It's been in the lower 50's or colder on all these times I used it since D&F's

Did a 2nd drain and fill on Subi Crosstrek. This was done by my local indie… $224. I thought very reasonable.

Is that km or mi? If miles, what engine is in your 2007? The 3.0 or the 2.5?

Miles, and it's the 2.3 Duratech. My 2017 has the 2.5 Duratech. Both engines are NA, Wouldn't own a turbo.

That's a lot of miles! You're doing something right. I've never had a turbo gas vehicle either, but have had 3 Turbo Diesels. Turbos were never a problem with my diesels over 340k miles each.

that's simply astounding. how long have you owned the 07? what repairs have you needed?

Replaced starter, both upper and lower control arms, smog pump, water pump, coolant thermostat, both front struts, and a couple of power window switches. That's about it.

Diesel turbos may be different than gas turbos. With gas turbos it's my understanding that they now have high pressure fuel pumps (very expensive to replace). Also turbos are expensive to replace as well. I drive my Fords for the long haul. 200, 300 miles.

Have had great results/luck with Ford Fusions as well. Had purchased my wife an 07 SEL 3.0 V6 new in 07. Great car. Was totaled in 13 when some dipstick blew a stop sign on Easter Sunday. Car had about 145k trouble free miles and the only repair was control arm bushings up front.

Replaced that one with a 13 fusion 2.0 ecoboost. That one has about 200k on it now. Have only replaced an evap sensor, transmission cooler thermostat & shocks/struts.

Both cars just received good fluids on a regular basis & returned great reliability.

Fine job keeping that 07 going. They’re great cars

Drain and fill on the xBs U241E, last of the Mobil 3324 I had on hand
Future services will be with the Idemitsu TLS-LV I'm overstocked with

This is the 3rd drain and fill it's had in the ~17k I've put on it
It's approaching 300k, if it makes it, I'll treat it to a pan drop and fresh filter
From the evidence (I don't have), the fluid I drained at 281k was factory

Shift on
... please
View attachment 303919

my 09 genny have 240k and I never did drain on it (because dealer said its lifetime and it cost over $1000 for the fluid) I'm contemplating of doing it now or just drop two bottle of Lubegard red and hope for the best.

A friend had his Corolla S totalled, see post #2501 from a few weeks ago...
We got a really clean 2017 Accord Sport with 115K for $12K.
I serviced the CVT due to unknown history; the drained fluid was brown-ish yellow clear. Not bad. The drain plug magnet was clean.
Out: 3.5 qts whatever, HCF-2 perhaps?
In: 1/2 qt HCF-2 and 3 qts LubeGard CVT synthetic. Did the dribble level set, easy peasey.

Man this thing drives perfect!

Another 2008 CR-V, 62K, unknown service interval.
