By the way why ford is saying it is sealed for life....I call 2 ford dealers and both gave me different answers. One said its sealed for life and the other one said every 200000Ks............confused Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/72315-bfmk11-6-speed-automatic-gearbox/#findComment-1067058 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I changed mine at 30K and it was pretty bad. If its under warranty stick with what ever ford recommend if not change to transmax z & you'll never go back.

GinjaNinja Member 125 Member For: 15y 8m 15d Gender: Male Location: SEQ Posted 09/01/11 09:33 AM Share Posted 09/01/11 09:33 AM But you need 9 Litres of Transmax if u're taking off the pan/gasket/filter, 4 litres if its just interval service.I use Penrite SIN ATF, exactly the same one used in Bimmers, I think it works what does everybody here think?
