I'm doing a oil change on my 04 2500 and the 06 service manual says it takes 14.8 Pts (7+ Qts) and the NAPA store told me it should take @5 Qts and I drained out 4Qts how much oil should it take?
and/but on the next page they say:page 21-34 said:(a) If only fluid and filter were changed,
add 7.4 L ((14.8 pts.) of transmission fluid to transmission.
(b) If transmission was completely overhauled,
torque converter was replaced or drained, and
cooler was flushed, add 7.7 L (16.3 pts.) of transmission
fluid to transmission.
.. i suspect that the "7.4 L" in the first quote is incorrect... i'd believe that the "translator" mistakenly put the "7.4 quarts" of the second quote into the first quote's text. Especially since 7.4 quarts is 14.8 pints, but 7.4 L would be 15.64 pints. (7.7 L is 16.3 pints)(19) Lower the vehicle and add 7.0 L (7.4 qts.) of
transmission fluid to the transmission.
(20) Check the oil level (Refer to 21 - Check Oil Level)
About as economical as it gets...... What is my most economical way to check the trans temp? ...
