After cleaning the transmission pan and strainer, I decided to go all the way and have the ATF changed through dialysis.
They used 12 liters of Shell Spirax S5 ATF X Synthetic. Seeing how dark the old ATF was, plus the amount of dirt and sludge we found in the pan and strainer, I’d say this service was long overdue. 😅
Spent around ₱8,000 for the ATF dialysis, labor, and 12L of ATF, plus ₱1,100 for the pan removal and strainer cleaning.
Not cheap, but at least I know the transmission got the proper cleanup it needed. 🔧
One less thing to worry about on this old Pajero. 💯
