I have an 06 with an ATS tranny, just wondering if anyone knows how often I should change out my fluid and have it serviced. What brand of fluid should I use or does it matter? Thanks!

 

every 30k i work for dodge dealer so i use mopar fluid cause its free

 

Are there any other brands of fluid that are better or worse?

 

use what the owner manual reccomends or call ats and ak them. Hope all goes well with the change!!

 

Thanks, I think Im going to have it serviced at a shop so I dont screw it up.

 

Probably tell you any Brand-name ATF+4...I tended to drain and fill mine more than most, just because.

If your pan doesn't have a drain, have one installed...it will make life much easier for future fluid changes (you don't really need to change the filter or adjust the bands every time).

 

i installed mag tech trans pan has drain plug in it and i think it holds approx extra gallon of fluid

 

I think mine has a drain plug, I will just have to figure out how much fluid it holds. I think I can call ATS for the capacities.

 

Drain the TQ too! If it has a drain plug! Most aftermarkets do! With that drained expect to use about 14 to 17 quarts!

 

Thanks for the advice. Now I gotta get the job done! Another Quick question: What is the Governor Pressure Solenoid? Thanks.
