I'm sure everyone remembers the transmission recall that required a bottle of additive be added to the transmission fluid. Well, I had my Trac at the dealer for the NY inspection, and decided to have the tranny flushed since its at 25k miles. I asked my service advisor about the additive, and if they needed to add it to the replacement fluid. He said that they did use the additive. My service invoice says: TRANSMISSION FLUSH USING BG ADDITIVE. So, if you have your transmission serviced somwhere other than a Ford dealer, it may be necessary to get a bottle of the additive (unless you use a full synthetic fluid, I suppose).
