Figured this would be considered a "Newbie" question.
Ok, I bought my truck with 102k on the clock. The previous (and original) owner has not ever changed out the fluid. What is the general recommendation in this instance? I am a bit nervous about doing a full-on flush, as I have heard horror stories of people doing it with 100k+ miles. Is this still the concensus? I also want to replace the OEM fluid with Amsoil or Redline. Is going synthetic after this many miles a bad thing?
Thanks.
