2004 Dodge 3500 4x4 Cummins @ 200,250 miles.

New Venture NV5600 6spd manual transmission.
Drained old lube thru lower PTO cover bolt hole, as this is a "lubed for life" tranny with no drain hole. Removed PTO covers both sides to remove all fluid and clean flexmagnet.
Reinstalled PTO covers using gaskets found on EBay, of all places. They were cheap and high quality.
Refilled with 5 qts Amsoil Syncromesh tranny fluid to bottom of fill plug (17mm hex), reinstalled fill plug and added 1 additional guart thru top PTO cover bolt.

The 96 Civic has a manual 5 speed. I used Rotella T6 5w40 in the transmission. Worked well in our old del sol, doing well in this one also.

2008 Ford F150 with a four speed 4R75E trans 67,400 miles. First trans service on the truck so factory fill in it.

Dropped the pan today and drained out about five quarts of fluid. The manual clams 13.9 quarts total in the trans. What came out is very dark and the mag had a bit of a layer of sludge on it.

Installed a new Motorcraft filter and filled with five quarts of Motorcraft Mercon V

2007 Ford Fusion. 165K

Out: M1 ATF

In: M1 ATF

Also I dropped the Pan and changed the filter. I do that every 75K or so. However I drain the fluid every 25-30 K depending on my ambition level.

 

[anl0109]

2014 Mazda5 van, 32,500 miles

Out: Most likely original Mazda OEM M5/M-V ATF, about 4 quarts via drain & fill
In: Castrol Transmax Import Multi-Vehicle ATF

Old fluid was quite dark but after this replacement there is no change in performance which is fine because the transmission shifted great prior to this service. Did it just because dealer said ATF should be changed every 30K miles. ATF not in maintenance schedule of the OM which is a first for me.

 

[Cosmos]

Dropped the pan and installed a drain plug on a recently acquired 2005 Jeep Liberty CRD Diesel with a 545RFE transmission. The Jeep has 160K with an unknown service history.

The fluid did not smell burnt, but was dark in color. Changed both filters during the service. There was no obvious metal or other crud in the pan.

I plan to drive it for a few days and then drain and fill twice more with more of the Super Tech ATF+4 fluid. I plan on draining the diffs and transfer case the next time I have it on the lift.
