Can we get a thread or a sticky or something that lists the mileage and or years all the fluids should be changed? It seems like there are multiple threads for each fluid and looking for each one can be a little hard to find. I know all the fluids should be changed before what Ford recommends.

Personally, the manufacturers recommendations are what I go by. A sticky would be full of everyone's personal opinions or links to Bob the Oil Guy, which would be useless to someone else.

This I do understand. As far as the oil goes I believe one should not listen to that since they say it can go 10,000 miles between oil changes. I do understand that your driving habits is suppose to factor everything in, but regardless. Also for instance my friend has a 2022 ram I believe and the manual says to change transmission at like 100,000 or 150,000 I cant remember, but the manufacture of the transmission says different. So I believe manufactures saying fluid changes can go longer then they should so they can seem more "green" for the ozone.

So are the recommended transmission fluid changes, I’m at 50,000 km, will do transmission/transfer case/both diffs, might be a little early but fluids are dirt cheap compared to if any of these goes wrong.

Go here:
https://www.ford.com/support/owner-manuals/

Type in your year and model. On the page that opens select the html version. On the html page scroll to near the bottom where it says “Scheduled Mainenance”. There’s a chart that shows all the Mx intervals. Yeah, it takes a little interpretation and reading of the footnotes but it is there.

Example, for the 2024 F-150, click here:

I’ll use manufacturer recommendations as max mileage typically and replace fluids,filters etc earlier
