I'll use 12qts of ATF to flush my tranny, so got another 12qts to spare.

Mondy ATF oil capacity is 7.5l, so plus 12l = 20l, correct?

[Turbobrick]

No lah, my brick's ATF capacity is 10.6L so take 12qts to push the remainder out enough.

 

For Ur mondy take 10L enough already for a flush.

[Turbobrick]

Flushing Mondy ATF? Not sure, must take a look and try to find the ATF cooler hose.....or bring the ATF to shop to flush with machine better [angelic]

U know any shop in JB? and also want to change the engine oil.

How to get a ATF filter??

[Turbobrick]

JB? No problem. I tot RM give U free service?

 

ATF filter have to check with RM, I'm not sure about Ford tranny whether got filter or not. My brick does not have OEM tranny filter.

they dun change ATF even on 2nd servicing. ATF in my Mondy have never been changed. To me, want it to be more clean -go for the AT.

How do i know whether I have to change my ATF or not? Btw, heard that changing ATF is only the oil part.... but need to change the ATF filter also right? How many litres do i need?

[Turbobrick]

First hand tell tale sign is checking the ATF color on the dipstick, make sure it is red and not brownish in color.

 

Most cars have a ATF filter but it depends on where it's located. Some have to drop the oil pan to change the filter so most of the time just left there and not changed.

U mean yr Conrona have not been changed any ATF?

[Guyver]

Oops... will need u to teach me how to see again....

[Turbobrick]

Alamak pull the ATF dipstick then wipe with tissue can see the ATF color liao lor

[Mondeo]

Guyver meant U help to locate the dipstick of ATF instead of engine oil

[Guyver]

So u mean i just pull the dip stick out... and wipe with a tissue... if red... OK.... if brownish.... then must change is it? If need to change, where do u recommend i go? got a guy from Caltex... quoted me $100+.... my regular mechanic... uses shell ATF... quoted me $60+..... but what's the difference?
