Sign In My Mothers 99 ford taruas has about 116k on it now and I'm thinking about doing the tranny filter and fluid. Is the miles too high to change it, Or will it be fine if i do? I've been hearing so many different things about new fluid being bad for higher milage trannys so i just want to be safe. -------------------------------------------------------- Your only as good as your tools!

Sign In If never done before it may cause problem or extend it's life - real hard to say as IMO tranny's life seems to depend a lot on how a car/vehicle is driven or just bad luck when they go. Truth is if filter is clogged it's toast but I do them anyway if there for whatever reason. Your call. If my own I would do it and if it blew then great I know it was waiting to go anyway. Own a car I'm junking now for rust reasons w 213K on original trans but was never abused but I got scared knowing it was original to take it on a very long trip as they really don't last forever, T Mr.scotty Enthusiast Jun 23, 2011, 8:12 PM Post #3 of 3 (1452 views) Re: Another transmission fluid question.
