2005 F250 Super Duty, 5-speed Torqshift. Need to drain and change remote filter. What is the refill quantity of fluid (qts) required after draining and changing the filter? Thanks.

 

Less than a quart. Just refill the filter housing after installing the new filter in the housing and you will be good to go.

 

From the 2005 owners manual, which can be downloaded here:

Automatic transmission fluid - Motorcraft MERCON SP ATF - 17.5 quarts (16.6L) (includes remote filter element change)

 

Are you dropping the pan and changing the remote filter or just changing the remote filter?

If you are dropping the pan & changing the remote filter it will take 7-8 qts as the T/C & trans cooler will still be full of fluid.

If you flush the transmission as per the procedure in the 6.0 tech folder, then it will take 18-20 quarts to fully flush and fill the transmission, T/C, cooler and lines.

There are two filters. Remote filter should be changed also.
