[QUOTE="EddieS'04, post: 1020520, member: 61136"] and the fluid refill was a 50/50 Amsoil and MERCON V mix. (He said something about not liking to go with 100% Amsoil until after the first filter change) Huh!! That is strange. IMO, one or the other. Preferably motorcraft.......but Im not that familiar with the 6 speed. Some years ago my B-inlaw had his 5r55e flushed and replaced with 100% syn. It didnt work out. After about 1200miles. A reflush and fill with motorcraft. Not any problems afterward. I have my own story about 100% syn mix with motorcraft merc 5. Lets just say shame on me for believing the wrong person. Several pan dumps later and motorcraft. I beleive I saved my trans.....:banghead: [/QUOTE]
