EASY WAY Ford F150 10R80 Trans Filter Replacement and Gasket and Fluid - How to check Oil Level also

[@FordBossMe]

Normally when you see guys do the transmission pan drops on the 10R80 you see them remove the cooler and everything will that's not necessary and I'll show you how to do that in this video my way

[@satin227]

what are your thoughts on DIY transmission service via the coolant line method? remove one line from the radiator run the engine drain one quart then add one quart repeat until clear it seems to work well on older vehicles from late 90's to about 2010's that I've seen on youtube.

[@brianbyers2682]

im sure the filter is fine, why not just suck out what you can from the dipstick bolt and add what you pulled out. 5 mins and your done. you can do a drain and fill twice in 10 mins. your way seems alittle overboard

I have a 2021 Ford Raptor and 55K miles. I really want to change my fluid & filter. I also have the B&M pan with the drain plug I'd like to install. The issue I;'m concerned about is the spec says to check at 206 degrees.... my transmission never reaches that temp unless I'm towing a heavy load and even then it just kisses that temp. How should I go about checking the fluid if I struggle to reach this temp? My last Raptor a 2019 model, I had the Ford dealer change it and both times they overfilled it. The first time it blew out the seals on the highway, the second time it was jumping at highway speeds while spiting some fluid out the vent. As you can imagine, I'm not willing to trust a local shop and just plan on doing the job myself. New subscriber by the way. Awesome video!

Dang brother. I don't know where you are but I'd be willing to travel 200 miles to have you work on my Lincoln Aviator. I once owned a Land Rover and the dealer service was supposed to include a tire rotation but I knew for a fact (due to obvious tread wear) that they didn't do a damn thing. The entire service was $900 and I honestly don't remember what all I had requested but if they couldn't rotate the tires, what else didn't they do? If I had a lift, I would do my own maintenance like when I was a young man. But I'm 57 years old now and it's not the most attractive thing to me at my age. I'd probably drop the car on my head!

Another great video Rich. Question regarding how to change out the fluid. My local Ford dealer does not pull the pan and change the filter. They hook it up to a machine and put in a Valvoline cleaner and suck out the old fluid but never change the filter. Then they simply add new fluid. I was surprised they didn’t drop the pan and change the filter. They said it wasn’t necessary. I opted to have a trusted trans guys drop my pan and do it as you did. Any thoughts on this? Thanks

[@TheBeatenPaths]

I'd never go back to that dealer for service. But that's me .

[@FordBossMe]

Beaten path So this is where you're thinking is flawed it is a normal procedure to do it that way there is nothing wrong with doing it that way because that filter lasts a very long time The Next Step would be instead of an hour service now you're moving up to a 2.2 hours service and you increase the cost of the repair substantially when you want the pan dropped and the fluid changed and the filter and Gasket replaced so they are not the same service We would flush it the same way as your do it did unless specified the customer wanted the filter and Gasket changed as well then the price would go up substantially because it's going to take me about an additional 1.2 hours

[@claytonjustensen9042]

Thanks for the reply Rich. Honestly, I was surprised that you would recommend doing the same service that my dealer is doing regarding flushing the transmission. I have always heard that flushing a transmission is never a good idea. Especially, on older vehicles. Maybe this flushing process that you and my dealer are recommending is a different process as compared to what others are doing when flushing a transmission? If so, could you explain the difference between the two and why the dealers process is safe to do? Thanks

[@cheeznhard]

@@claytonjustensen9042 It is different from the old "flush" way of the past, the dealership uses special machines that heat up and "exchanges" the fluid. As Rich mentioned there's absolutely nothing wrong with doing a transmission fluid exchange (provided it's done at the dealership/shop with the right equipment) With all that being said if I had a truck that had over 100,000 miles on it and the transmission fluid has never been changed I personally would opt to do a pan drop partial fluid change with filter. Being so close to the 150 thousand mile filter life I would want to get that taken care of.

The vehicle needs to be up to complete operating temperature and you need to have enough fluid in it while it's hot to be on the dipstick so if it's just if it's not on the dipstick you're not putting the dipstick down in all the way or you need more fluid that's just all there is to it

Good afternoon, are they going to have any updates to fix the shudder and shifting issues on the 10 speed auto? I know there are a couple out there, and some have better results than others in regards to effectiveness. Thanks! Our dealer is backed up about 2 months right now, and I was hoping for an over the air update.

Adaptive relearn, transmission break in strategy procedure, valve body cleaning and if those things don't work they tear it apart and look to rebuild if it's not the torque converter and that's all I really have for you

[@Mountainbaseddweller]

@@FordBossMe thank you!

[@dcheynerl]

The dipstick comes with the transmission?

[@FordBossMe]

Yes

[@RafananClan]

Isn't that pan gasket reusable?

[@TeamPaulie2520]

Is there a pan out there that has a drain plug built into it??

[@FordBossMe]

In the aftermarket world I hear they have an aluminum pan but I don't know much about that I haven't researched it

[@Cooldibs]

Can you check the level while it’s running or do you have to turn it off to get an accurate measure?

[@FordBossMe]

Has to be running

[@MrMe-o2c]

The Ford dealership in my area don't want to do this process they only offer flush no filter replacement

Bought a 13 ecoboost with 58k had leed frame replaced at dealer I bought it from now has 79k when do you think I should replace

[@FordBossMe]

Coolant and diff services and transfer case fluid maybe brake fluid

[@jeremypilot1015]

Why is the transmission cooler under the truck where it could get damaged and also why is it right in the way of the pan. What a PITA/.

[@kpiorek91]

Hey Rich! How did you torque the bolts that are behind the exhaust. Long story short, I did clean where the transmission gasket sits, and did install new gasket. And I'm still leaking from where the exhaust is.

[@FordBossMe]

Quarter inch drive 10 mm swivel socket, quarter inch Drive extension, quarter inch Drive electric ratchet For the 2 13mm bolts I used a 13 mm wrench and I angled it from the pan backwards

@@FordBossMe thanks man I'll try, I guess I'll have to buy some more tools.

[@mojo4376]

So, how many qts did you end up using?

[@FordBossMe]

I think 7

Love the content! I've got a17 f150 with 145k first owner. Sadly I've never changed the trans fluid. Runs fine. I was told that a dealer won't touch the transmission or flush it at this mileage. Is replacing the filter and a good portion of the fluid okay to do? Doing this procedure that you just showed going to help prolong the life? I'm not having any issues with the transmission but I know it's way overdue for fluid service. Your advice is appreciated.

[@FordBossMe]

It should

[@joshhoyt9576]

@@FordBossMe thanks. I figured leaving some old fluid but diluting it with newer fluid should be better than flushing it all out. New filter should help as well. Just wanted your prof opinion. Thanks for all the great videos.
