Quakerstate 4x4 Synthetic Blend ATF?
I just changed my tranny fluid and filter for the first time @ 50k miles - EEK! The fluid was a nice red color, no burning smell at all, and the gunk around the magnet wasn't all that much, thankfully.
A few questions:
1. I was under the assumption that all Expys came with the 470RW transmission. I have the E4OD in mine - bought it brand new and according to the sticker it was built in May, if that makes a difference. I tell you, that drain plug helps a lot.
2. Is the Quakerstate 4x4 Synthetic Blend decent fluid to use?
3. The torque specs for the pan bolts as listed in the Haynes manual said between 98-132 in-lbs. I torqued mine at 125. Was that the right thing to do? I know it's obviously within range but is it better to stick at the low/mid/higher range?
Thanks!
