I have just recently bought a 2012 f 150 with the 5.0 liter.I was looking through my owners manual to see about service intervals so i can keep up on my maintenance.The book says you dont have to change your transmission fluid or filter till 150,000 miles,is this correct,i find this a little odd especially when there is no tranny dipstick to keep an eye on your fluid level.Thanks for any replies in advance.The info is on page 453 of the owners manual.

 

That would be massively unfortunate if they printed a typo like that on about 300,000 manuals

 

it says it in my manual.

 

IMO i would'nt listen to the manual on those suggestion do 75K. Remember oil and a filter is cheaper than a tranny.

 

i always was led to beleive to change your tranny fluid every 25 or 30 thousand miles,dont know.

 

Its correct and there is a mini dip stick next to the tyranny underneath the truck
