Fluid changes

Postby BabyDontYurtMe » Mon Jan 26, 2015 7:32 pm

Hello everyone,

Couple of questions regarding changing fluids:
1. Anyone know how many litres in a 135 RWD T350 LWB brake system? I have seen 1.5l - 2.5l thrown around. So do I buy 2 or 3 litres do you think?
2. Power steering fluid - is it worth ever changing this? Or just top up?

Looking at changing all fluids just in case.
Completed the Mongolia Charity Rally 2015 with a beautiful Mk6 LWB high roof Transit.
We loved it so much, we have just purchased a Mk7 LWB high roof Transit to do some staycationing!

If I where you I'd buy 5 Ltrs flush the system and keep the remainder and take it with you and the steering oil is the same as ATF don't buy power steering oil it's overpriced and to answer your question iv never changed it
just follow the onscreen instructions and it's fairly idiot proof...trouble is, we keep producing better idiots
