Going to change out the fluid on my disco tomorrow. I could swear I had read about a beneficial additive to toss in there while i was at it, but I'm not finding it again. Any tips on additives, if they prove beneficial I'd like to use one.
If not then less to buy at the store.
Thanks

 

Don't add anything, just get a good quality ATF.

 

Well im all done with the fluid change. Only 4.75 ish quarts came out, pretty murky brown looking. . But the same amount went back in. Went through the gears. Went for a drive. Still held the same amount. Calling it good i suppose. Gonna change it out again in a few weeks to get more fresh fluid in.

 

i fixed your post for you. cf. the rave manual for the correct fill procedure.

 

I use Hydra Trans Tune. Seems to smooth out some of the rougher shifting.

 

Damn. Thanks for pointing that out from the rave. I screwed that part up in my procedure. Not just a typo. My rave download isnt working and i went off a sticky guide. I must have missed to keep er runnin..Crap
Back out to check and fill one more time i suppose.
Thanks
Also found a new rave download thats working well.

 

So I did it per the rave exactly this time. Took about another quart. About 5.5 total.
Feel better about it now. Gonna try to do 2 more times over a few weeks to get more newer fluid it. No problems with the tranny. Hopefully none surface from changing fluids. My 2000 mercedes tranny took a dump after fluid change and was fine up untill it. And the damn stealership did that service

 

@DodyDisco I had mine done 2 years ago, no problems at all.

 

did you change the filter as well?

 

I was getting some transmission "clunking" with standard transmission fluid, but I changed it to Mobil One Synthetic, and all the noise went away
