Lanfe1n Posted October 16, 2022 Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 Hi all. I recently purchased a 2013 edge sport with 126k on the clock. The dealership did not have all the service history. I am unsure IF or when the last time the transmission fluid or PTU was changed. Should I be afraid to have the transmission fluid changed at this point? The PTU will need to be serviced for sure. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1004ron Posted October 16, 2022 Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 Yes, if you don't have the service history then treat it as if every routine service item is overdue, engine oil & filter, air filter, cabin filter, spark plugs, trans fluid, PTU, ........etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have been more clear. I’m worried about the debate on changing the transmission fluid if it has never been changed before. I have changed everything else and next one line is transmission and PTU. Since I’m not sure if the transmission fluid has been changed could it cause any damage at this point?

1004ron Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 I would use the "Drain & Fill" on the transmission until the drained fluid shows significant improvement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
