Transmission Cured

And from behind they did. 3 quarts came out to be 56 bucks!!! Changed the fluid. Keep in mind I was running amsoil before this. I didn't notice any improvement. If anything its harder to shift now. Waste of 60 bucks.

Yikes dude. Amsoil is good shit, I don't think I would have done it with that in there. From stock fluid this stuff is amazing, but probably not a lot of difference from Amsoil.

Though I will say this... the Ford stuff supposedly doesn't really work its magic right away, especially when it's cold. It really comes alive in the heat and also just gets better and better over time. Some say you won't see the difference until AT LEAST 500 miles and then after a few thousand and continues to improve all the way to 5,000 miles after install. So give it time, I have no doubt you will see an improvement as you get more miles and especially when it heats up (summer). So don't feel like all is lost yet.

I seen the difference instantly, but I've had issues with my tranny and I changed out stock fluid.

Thanks. I'll give it some time to break in.

it will probably take more than 3 qts but that will be over the max fill ... i believe if u just stick your finger in there and u feel the fluid u should be ok ... if u have a service manual u will see what i mean. I put in 3qts but spilled a little so its close enough to 2.6 lol

Overfilling is a recipe for blown seals, leaks and internal damage. Remember, there's an expected air volume inside the case and there's a bunch of whirling gears pumping fluid and air around. If you overfill with an essentially incompressible fluid, something's gotta give.

On another forum someone said the 6-speed is actually a Getrag 6MTT450:

GETRAG Corporate Group - 6MTT450 TRANSMISSION
