MT-82 Whine

[Budwise]

Yep, its still an MT-82. My car has had it since test driving but I wasnt sure what it was at first. Now I can tell its definitely transmission whine. Its not bad but its definitely there. I sure wish Ford would have tossed this thing with the new models. There is no fix right?

Amsoil fixed mine. It sounded like a centrifugal blower before because it was so loud. Totally quiet now.

 

[Budwise]

I was thinking about that route. I'll order some.

Looks like Rev Auto will be staying in the MT82 upgrade business on the 2015+ too.

Keep it stock because it will only get louder.

Amsoil helps a lot.

Amsoil does help but when you start adding power the tranny will start singing again! I wonder if the current tremec magnum xl will fit the 2015!

 

[DSG2003SVT]

Why not just get Rev Auto to build it for $900 for stage 1? I don't understand why that option is dismissed so much when it's gotten rave reviews. You get to keep everything like stock that way too instead of troubleshooting a tremec swap. It's a much cheaper option as well.

Please explain this upgrade??

Driving now. I'll get back in a bit if someone doesn't beat me to it.

Curious about Rev 's MT-82 upgrade as well. The manual is fun to drive but was thinking auto this round because of the Mt-82 problems we had in the past. If Adam has MT--82 magic, I will have to do an m6 again.

Try to search rev auto mt82. Think that's how I found it a while back.

I was hoping for a simple post. Looks like a phone call. Im lazy.

I wonder if I should do the XL18 additive with the MTF?

 

[DSG2003SVT]

I didn't, but overfill it by a quart is something I've heard. I'm going to do that next time.

 

[Budwise]

3 qt's of Amsoil MTF and a bottle of XL-18 ordered. Now next week I just gotta figure out the best jack points on this car.

 

[blackbeast12]

Ford has been adding xl-18 since 2013 and it helps with shift ease not with noise!

 

[Budwise]

So I made the swap to Amsoil MTF with the XL-18 additive. In just the 10 miles or so I've driven it I can tell it shifts better but I dont think it silenced the MT82 much, maybe a little.

 

[SID297]

MTF is on my list of things to do. No noise from the EcoBoost yet though.
