Yes it is..You will probablly have to pick up another qt and add til it tops off.
Service manuel says tp change fluid after 30,000 miles but it's good for way longer than that. Also the myth that if you dont change fluid after so many miles and if you change it at say 100,000miles your trans will go to **** isnt true.
+1Yes it is..
100,000 old tranny fluid builds up and sludges up like your motor. covering seals blocking potiential parts. when you drain it and put new tranny fluid and flush it. guess what happens to all that build up previously..
its not a myth its a fact. change your fluid on time or close.
:yes+1
Be ready for all the loose contamination and hope that everything is still in good condition when you change the fluid. Last thing you want is to do a regular maintenance fluid change that hasn't been done regularly and all of a sudden blow the trans. That would suck.
Your statement is fasle. Transmission fluid doesnt "sludge" like motor oil and does not create seals. Transmission fluid does wear out caused by heat from the tq converter though.Yes it is..

Once again motor oil and transmission oil are completelly different types of fluids.:yes
saying that this is a "myth that isnt true" is like saying you can change your oil after every 15,000 miles on conventional with out a problem...changing your oil is a myth.

honestly you might be new but i dont care cause your wrong.Your statement is fasle. Transmission fluid doesnt "sludge" like motor oil and does not create seals. Transmission fluid does wear out caused by heat from the tq converter though.
But I do agree you should change your fluid at the scheduled time.
False. the ford windstar is to be changed at 40,000mile intervalsOnce again motor oil and transmission oil are completelly different types of fluids.
You should change convential motor oil at 3000miles. Transmission fluid should be changed after the first 30000miles and should be flushed after 60000miles.
lol i like the between the fingers detail.It's pointless to argue with Chris. He's proven his knowledge on here plenty of times.
And when he says he knows these cars like the back of his hand, he means the front, sides, and between the fingers as well. He knows his **** end of story.
Its true, he has no life. But really Chris does know his stuff.It's pointless to argue with Chris. He's proven his knowledge on here plenty of times.

IDK? I'm broke, due to school and my car breaking **** every time I get it fixed. Anyone wanna start sending me free parts just incase something else breaks?how much does flushing it cost anyways?
