Default DIY Powershift Transmission Fluid Change

Here's a link to a Volvo training video on the fluid change:

It's the same procedure as far as the actual gearbox is concerned.

FLUID CHANGE PROCEDURE
Getrag 6DCT450 on MONDEO 2007-2014




STEP 1: PREPARATION

FLUID CAPACITY: 6 litres.

GETRAG 6DCT450 TRANSMISSION FLUID
Ford specification WSS-M2C936A.
OR
FUCHS part number 4377
FUCHS Titan DCTF
Transmission filter kit.
Temperature of transmission fluid: 35-45 degrees C.
Transmission must not be in limp mode or have DTC's.
Remove air filter housing etc to gain access to filler plug.
Raise car to a convenient height.
Note: CAR MUST BE LEVEL.
Remove undertray (10mm socket)
Place waste container. (About 5-6 litres should come out)
Remove passenger side wheel to gain access to the filter.
Remove two nuts and three screws and clamp the plastic guard
out of the way.
Engine running, brake pedal applied, select all gear positions
for 20 seconds each. Return to PARK.


STEP 2: DRAIN THE OLD FLUID

Engine off.
There are 3 drain plugs before 02/2009, 2 drain plugs after.
Remove all the 8mm hex socket drain plugs.
After the fluid has drained replace the drain plugs.
Unlock and remove the filter.
Note: The filter housing has a plastic locking clip, a small
plastic wedge is handy to hold it open.


STEP 3: FILL WITH FRESH FLUID

Prime the new filter with fluid (about 0.1 litres) and install.
Fill transmission with 5.5 litres of fluid.
Install the filler plug.


STEP 4: LEVEL ADJUSTMENT

Engine running, brake pedal applied, select all gear positions
for 20 seconds each. Return to PARK.

Remove the level check plug.
A two-foot long extension with a universal joint makes it easy.
Allow fluid to drain until it begins to drip.

Note: THE FLUID THAT ESCAPES DIRECTLY AFTER
THE FLUID LEVEL CHECK HOLE IS OPENED
IS NOT AN INDICATION OF A CORRECT FLUID LEVEL.
FLUID MUST BE ADDED THROUGH THE FILLER OPENING
WITH THE LEVEL CHECK HOLE OPEN UNTIL THE FLUID AGAIN
RUNS OUT AT THE LEVEL CHECK HOLE, AS FOLLOWS:

Top up via filler hole until fluid flows again
through the level check hole, allow to drain again
until it begins to drip.

Install level check plug and filler plugs.
Put the rest back together and the job is done.
