Default Re: Cost of Fluids - alternatives?

Hi, this is my first post.

Transmission fluid alternative FUCHS #4377 Titan DCTF
I bought from Bursons 20l $320 4l $87 Did mine a year ago, no problems.
About half the Ford price. Says it meets Ford specs.

Changing the fluid wasn't difficult but requires a definite sequence of
actions, which I could try to post soon. I got the information from a Ford factory workshop manual. One problem is that the car
must be raised AND LEVEL. Also, the transmission temp must be about 35
degrees c otherwise the level can be wrong due to expansion/contraction.

Raising the car level was the biggest problem, no jacks allowed anywhere
except the designated jacking points.
