2002 FX4 4WD (factory pkg) 4.0L, 5R55E tranny, L/S rear diff, elect transfer case. I bought the truck used. Had just under 70K miles on it and soon after getting it I had the local Aamco shop change the fluid and filter (drop pan, change filter, refill...no flush). It now has 152K and I'm wondering about whether or not to do another fluid and filter change myself.I hear some say to just leave a high mileage auto tranny alone if it's not ever had any service. Is it worth the potential risk in this case for me to drop the pan and refill? Filter change optional. If so, what amount of fluid should I expect to replace?
