Hi everyone, I'm glad to find and become a member at your great site.
I'm using my first post to ask for some help in understanding the pros/cons to changing ATF fluid in a trans. after it acquires mileage above 60,000 miles.
My friend has said not to do it because any new fluid will have all good additives, etc. and overly slippery properties due to the well worn surfaces on everything.
Is this a generally agreed upon fact? I just purchased a used Ford Ranger with 87,000 miles on it and was going to change to Amsoil or Schaeffer's, etc. along with an oil change.
Thanks guys, I'm learning tons more than I have known about my cars due to you.
