30,000 mile service

My 06 Lariet Screw is due for the 30,000 mile service . I have the Transmission service scheduled . The place is going to just backflush the fluid out and put new in without changing the filter. Is this typical and acceptable.

Also do I have any cabin filters or grease fitings I need to grease ?

Thanks

I seriously would not recommend doing a tranny power flush. just drop the pan and clean the screen and add new fluid. I did a tranny power flush at the ford dealer and 4k miles later my tranny was fried. Also change the fuel filter.
No cabin filters or grease fitting to deal with.

I thought it would be better to have the tranny filter changed. Is this a job that can be done in the garage or is it a pain in the *** ?


I did the fuel filter. Why do they use Two different methodes of connecting the fuel lines ?
