I have 60k on my 2018 8 spd and have no real issues with it except the first shift from 1-2 when cold has a bit of flare. I'm looking to do a fluid and filter change as well as install Caulk's tstat bypass. I won't be doing this till the spring so I will likely have 63-65k by the time I do this. So I'm outside of the warranty but I don't want to make the flare worse.
I picked up:
- B&M deep pan 4qt extra (I know its not neccessary but stock pans are $$ plus I don't like plastic and I like the replaceable filter etc and I got it for like $200)
- Caulks bypass
I'm looking for fluid recommendations. I know the ZF fluid is $30+qt and the MaxLife is a good option. I don't really love the idea of $30+ quart and I will need like 10qts based on 4-6qts with a stock pan +4. I heard amsoil makes a fluid that but haven't found out what it is yet.
