80,000 miles, 2006 Limited
Changed engine oil and filter, MotoCraft 5-30
Changed Trans filter and fluid 14 qts of Pennzoil MercV. drain once refill with 7 qts, ran trans through gears, drained and filled, added 20 oz Lubegard Red... I swear by this stuff. (last drain and fill with filter 35,000.
Before: trans hesitated from a standing start, shifted late, passing gear was late to engage and was like mush
After: Crisp at start out, very torque-y, up-shifts are real positive, Passing gear kicks in when supposed to. Amazing. over-torqued one bolt on the pan and broke it, no leaks after 20 miles... will watch for leak.
I love the feeling of newly service power train:exp:
