I have 2007 explorer V8 with about 150k miles on it. I went to dealership have my transmission fluid changed about 75k. Assuming they actually changed it (never know really, I dont trust dealership much), It has been decent.
I dont know how much longer I will be keeping this car. Might get another car in about an year or so which is about 15k miles. Should I leave it be or change the fluid?
I have seen the youtube video posted by makuloco. My question is..should I really open up the transmission case or just use a pump to suck the fluid out?
If I open it up, are these following parts and tool match what I need? (I think I have 6r60, use Mercon SP)
I dont think I need to buy the gasket..or should I? Any suggest on the impact wrench? Thanks
