I changed the auto filter and fluid over the weekend and wasn't expecting there to be much difference in the noise from the box (wine in first gear 100,000miles ) but it's now quite in all gears....just like new......
And got a bargain with the oil used Commer AQM (Dexron II) 5lts for £11.
Filter and gasket from Fords £28

The oil wasn't too discoloured thats why I didn't think it was going to make much difference but it did.....but don't make the same mistake as me make sure you use the right oil I used AQM and have now to change it for AQ3 (Dexron 3) this time £20.
