drolds1 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Ford Tech Makuloco has come through with another enlightening video for AWD owners. Ford is apparently backing off from their "filled for life" approach to the PTU fluid. If you've been around here for a while, you know that some owners have changed theirs and what comes out is not pretty. Do it every 30K.

nForrest Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Had my PTU Fluid changed on my 2017 Sport today (31K Miles) at a local dealership. Provided my own Valvoline 75W140 full synthetic. They had never done a PTU Oil change. I had to tell them where the drain and fill plugs were. There were 4-5 tech standing around under the lift just so they could see where everything was. Drain plug had about 1/4 inch of debris on the magnet of the drain plug. Oil was very black Refill took about 22 ounces. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveGY Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Changed PTU fluid in my 2013 today. I have 60k miles and hadn't changed it before. It STANK and was not pretty. There was a full 1/8 - 1/4 inch of crud on top of the drain bolt. It was an easy job...wish I had known about it 30k miles ago. Will definitely be changing it regularly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
