Approaching 150,000 miles on my 2013 PP - Suggested Maintenance?

[Peetah75]

Hope y’all are doing great! I’ll hit 150K this week so I’m thinking it’s time to replace the oil, coolant, and other fluids. The PTU was replaced at 135k but I’m not sure if the fluid was replaced so I’ll have that changed to be safe. I think the transition fluid is separate from PTU. She’s running great otherwise. Other fluids or recommended items recommended? When my Ford ESP warrantee expired, I got the Ford powertrain coverage for 2 more years. Another reason why I want to keep it maintained properly. Thanks in advance. Your advice has been invaluable since I joined this forum in 2020 at 93K. Here's to another 50k.

Mass huh? Get her on a lift and start looking over the sub frame, might be time to go to mevo and get replacement parts. Check the wheel well areas especially around the plastic moldings for rust. https://www.amsoil.com/p/amsoil-mp-metal-protector-amp/

Mehalko the YT Ford guy we tend to watch talked about it.

Absolutely change out the transmission fluid if not done recently. My 13 started to develop a shudder in 3rd and 4th. Transmission fluid was clear pink and no burnt smell so I wasn't concerned and figured it was transmission/torque converter time. Did a drain and fill and added a friction modifier (dr someone or other). Problem solved instantly. I maintain everything else meticulously and never gave the transmission fluid much of a thought, but it matters even if it looks good. My 2c

Hey 6500rpm, thanks for the reply. Nice ride you have. I noticed the SHO badge on the grille. Nice addition. I've often wondered why Ford didn't add one, so considered doing it myself. I added it back to the decklid but didn't add to the grille since its not unusual for cars in front of me on the highway to pull over thinking I'm an unmarked. I read more on this forum and will do the trans, PTU, RDO, brake fluid and coolant.
