- Today we have a 2019 F-250 With the 6.2 gasoline engine and the 6R100 automatic transmission. We are doing some preventive maintenance on it in the form of a transmission filter and fluid exchange. This process should be the same on 2017 F-250, 2018 F-250, 2019 F-250, 2020 F-250, 2021 F-250, 2022 F-250, and 2023 F-250 as well as F-350 with the 6.2L gas engine and 6R100 transmission. F250 F350
Transmission service is the one thing most people never do with any regularity..the other is oil changes! Thanks for the “Insight”!
And the easy transfer case .
Just did this on my 2017 F250. I guess I’m fortunate that the 17 still had a drain plug and full length dip stick. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for this video
I’ve been looking for this service information for our 2018 f250 for a while.
Great stuff, you answered a lot of questions.
I've heard on the street that if you clean the truck filter pick up tube and also don't lubricant the filter O-ring it hangs up there a little better while putting the pan up . 👍 Nice vid .
Super informative yall thanks! Answered all my questions.
If you wipe the channel where the filter inserts, then push the new filter up into it, it will stay put long enough for you to maneuver the pan into place.
Great video , i had to make a comment on those two cats . They have to be the crustiest cats ive ever seen in my ife .lol
Should note that this is the 6R100 transmission that is only in the 2017+ F250 6.2L gassers. 2011-2016 F250 6.2L had the same 6R140 transmission that is in all other 2011+ F250 and F350 gas and diesel models, which does have a drain plug and dipstick...
Also, the V and LV stand for viscous and low viscosity. The Mercon V was slightly more viscous than the original Mercon fluid. These transmissions need the lower viscosity LV fluid, and there is also Mercon ULV, which is ultra low viscosity.
Great information. Thank you! I will update the description accordingly.
@@automotiveinsight Forgot to mention how helpful your video was. I have both 2016 and 2019 6.2L F250's and I've done the trans flush on the 16 but needed this video to find the fill plug on the 19 that I'll be doing this weekend... so, thanks!
Great video. I just bought a (new to me) 2019 F250 6.2 with 156k miles on it. Previous owner did an excellent job on regular services, but this will be helpful for the future.
Ive seen B&M has a deeper oil pan with a drain plug for the 6r100 transmission that holds 3.25 quarts over stock if i remember correctly…….. anyways i ordered it and now im wondering if the filter will sit right ……. Yikes ….. to be continued…..
Hi I have the 2018 6.2 gasser with the 6r100 transmission as what Ford told me it is. I’m assuming that’s what you have ? Not sure if mine has that under truck trany fill and check. I’ll to look when back up on lift . I was filling from top trany tube . Have you seen the Dorman trany pans ? On Amazon they are around $37 with a drain plug . I bought one and installed it . Seems really nice but not sure if that filter is staying up in its location to do its job in either pan you are using . Do you know of anyway of knowing that filter stays in place while putting that pan on ? Great video
Thanks. I haven't seen the oil pan you're talking about, but that makes sense and is a good idea. Dorman usually makes pretty decent stuff so if you're planning on keeping the truck a long time and performing this service regularly, it would probably be a good investment. My understanding is that the filter won't go down far enough to fall out once the pan is installed, which would make sense. I don't remember off hand what exactly it looks like up there, but I would guess if it fell, it would be in the wrong spot and you couldn't get the pan back on. If you were concerned about it, you could used a boroscope camera through the fill plug to see if it's where it needs to be.
So, one ford tech channel says never use any ATF other then OEM Mercon LV.
Something not mentioned here and on numerous Superduty ATF service vids is the results of using other than OEM ATF fluid.
Anyone have issues using Valvoline, or RP or Amsoil ATF fluid?
My 2018 only has 29k but I use it during shredding season and tow 11.2k all summer.
Gear box and transfer case was ready and got fluid change. The transfer was bad and now know the ATF needs it as well.
Thanks for any input on this.
So ive watched acouple of videos and Amsoil has the best ATF and Engine oil from the looks of it and banks power uses it for all their diesel trucks and products, ive even heard their temps are lower and hold up better over time and stress with even fixing rough noisy shifting and getting better fuel mpg opposed to other oils tested, project farm shows this on youtube as far as the breakdown comparison, the rest ive heard from people around town.
So the transmission filter is just gonna float shouldn’t it clip in somehow or pop in?
Thanks for the video. I did mine and there was a yellow piece with a o ring in the pan. Any idea where that goes back into?
That is a good sign. That means the transmission Pan hasn’t been dropped since it came off the factory. If you were buying a used car and you suspected the vehicle had transmission issues or wanted to know if a drain and flush were ever performed or if you paid someone to do it and they scammed you by charging you for work never performed the presence or lack therof would tell you a lot of information
The yellow peice is a dip stick plug while the truck goes down the line during assembly. When line workers push the dip stick in, it knocks that yellow plug into the Trans pan
I didn't see you remove or add a new gasket/sealant for the pan...
Reused the gasket the first time. The filter came with a new gasket and I replaced it the second time. I didn’t show it because I had to fight with the filter and pan to get it back on.
Why did you drain it twice?
You don't have to, but the transmission capacity is 13.9 qts, so doing it twice (12 qts) is much closer to a flush than a drain and fill.
