WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 Welcome to the community, Kazz, great color choice for your new ride! Best of luck, one thing I would suggest is that the PTU be verified to have the correct fluid level (the procedure is in the factory service manual) by the selling dealer or a trusted mechanic. If it looks at all gunky, best to have it changed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazz Posted November 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Thanks WWWPerf_ZN0W. Has there been issues with this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Unfortunately, yes. We thought the problem had been resolved with the 2011+ makeover, but it continues. So far, we have found that regular PTU fluid flushes are the best preventive measure, get the PTU (and RDU) done every couple of years for best effect. That should keep any problems at bay for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
