- 2000 Mercury Mountaineer
Hey guys, I bought a 2000 mercury mountaineer as an extra vehicle and winter driver. It is in top shape but never had a tranny service performed. My question is should I do a trans flush or drop the pan and change the filter? Ive heard some negative things about the flushing and how it can actually damage the trans by moving metal shavings around from the torque converter damaging the clutches etc. I also know the ups and downs to only changing the filter and whatever fluid is in the pan. By the way it has 90k miles and is a 5.0 awd. Let me know what you think, thanks.
