- 00 XLS 4x4
I know that this has been discussed at length, but I want to get clarification on one thing that I haven’t been able to get consensus on.
I am getting ready to add an ATF cooler and filter to my 2000 XLS 4x4 as well as converting to synthetic ATF (probably Mobile 1). It does not have a secondary cooler from the factory. It does have 63k miles and had an ATF flush at 35k miles.
My question is this: Is there any benefit to doing a drop pan fluid and filter change in addition to the flush? I don’t see any reason to go through the hassle, unless having that old filter would create problems.
The other question is: Will it be a problem going from Micron III to Mobile 1?
Any thoughts?
