This video covers: -Starting the engine and monitoring transmission fluid temperature using the Foxwell NT716 -Cycling through all gear positions (twice), with pauses, to purge air from internal passages and components -Why transmission pan temperature runs significantly cooler than actual fluid temperature -and why using a thermal gun on the pan is unreliable Final fluid level procedure: -Removing the fill-check plug at 38°C, allowing fluid to reduce to a controlled drip -Reinstalling and torquing the fill-check plug while working safely around hot exhaust components -Inspecting pan fluid condition before final closure -Allowing exhaust temperatures to drop before reinstalling and torquing the fill plug Results and evaluation: -Side-by-side before and after fluid comparisons, both in bottles and on paper towels -Extended test drive (longer than planned due to noticeable improvement) -Discussion of future plans to transition coolant and brake fluid to Amsoil, based on current results Additional service notes: -Replacement and evaluation of sway bar bushings, including my experience with thermoplastic bushings -Why I ultimately recommend rubber bushings and permanently retired the thermoplastic ones Follow-up maintenance: -Second fluid change performed off-camera, with documented fluid condition comparisons -Filter inspection and replacement despite clean appearance (arguably overkill—but intentional) -Discussion of diminishing returns from multiple fluid changes and when more than two makes sense I close with an honest evaluation of the driving results after a 1,500-mile trip, and my recommendation for future services based on cost, results, and long-term reliability.
