    Valvoline ULV fluid change

    The Ford stuff is more than likely made by Valvoline. I wouldn't hesitate to use it.

    Really loving Ford's CEO at the moment

    I've owned (2) Infinitis so I agree with you, and that's my point, I think Nissan would bolster any US manufacturer. They "just work"

    Really loving Ford's CEO at the moment

    I hear ya...I've had issues, but really not too much worse than other brands overall. Edit: Sounds cliche, but my best experiences recently (Reliability) have been with Japanese cars. A venture with Ford and something like Nissan or ??? would be cool. I truly think it's a culture "thing" and a...

    Really loving Ford's CEO at the moment

    Just watched his interview on Fox, and he is doubling down on America. Really nice to see. Looked up their stock and price. Didn't realize they have a big dividend as well. Considering they were the only car company that didn't take handouts during the great recession (I think?) and that Henry...

    Leaking oil?

    Sorry, I should have been clearer. I meant the engine oil, not diff oil. Thanks

    Leaking oil?

    Can someone verify if the oil is drained during this service? Reason I ask, I am in the middle of an oil change (50K) and found out I have this leak, of course...Obviously if they are going to drain and replace the oil, I won't bother. I should be covered under Ford GOLD warranty I got when I...

    Transmission Fluid Dipstick Option?

    That's one way to put it. Edit: most would appreciate a little more information. I guess you don't want to share that, or can't?

    Transmission Fluid Dipstick Option?

    Can you elaborate on where/why it won't fit? Are you intentionally being vague?

    Transmission Fluid Dipstick Option?

    Let us know what he comes up with. I was going to make my own until I saw the F-150 version...sounds like that one won't work. I think the threads are M18 x 1.5. I was thinking of an AN fitting at the trans, then either bending and flaring a tube or using -8 or 10 flexible. Trick then is to find...

    Transmission Fluid Dipstick Option?

    Same here, I don't remember what clearance looks like directly above the transmission. Also, these are on Ebay much cheaper, and they all list the F-150 up to 2023. I know the 10R60 (what I think all STs have (?) and the 10R80 listed are very similar. I'd "assume" the plug threads are the same, etc.

    Transmission Fluid Dipstick Option?

    Has anyone tried this one on an ST? Looks promising, but I'm assuming it won't work for some reason since they don't list the ST as being compatible. Just wondering if anyone's tried it...
