I've heard this from several people over the years and
Bernd also mentioned it recently,about it not
necessarily being a good idea to change fluid/filter
on high-mileage transmissions. My only question is,at
one point should you just leave it (at what mileage)?
Our 2000 Jeep GC has 80k on it,with the 42RE. We
bought it at 30k,and it probably never had maintenance
done on the transmission. Once in a great while,it
will temporarily jump out of drive on sharp turns.
Fluid level seemed right when I checked it,but
apparently you're supposed to check it in what they
call "neutral"? :0
My inclination is to change the filter,and fill it
with ATF+4,and that's what I'll do,unless someone sets
me on a better path!
Thanks,
Steve P.
