Changing the transmission fluid on the ST is a fairly simple process and can be done with one person. In this video I cover how to change out the fluid, what fluid I chose, how much of it is used and if there is a difference in feel one this is complete.

Pro tip: when draining the fluid out, use one hand to slowly remove the drain plug, then with the other hand hold the plastic drain pan right up to where the oil comes out; this helps to prevent the splashing and spilling of dirty fluid all over the place. Since only two quarts will come out, you can continue to hold the drain pan up high and let the fluid just fall right into it. Make sure you remove the fill plug first, of course. When refilling, use the funnel with a hose attached you can get at the local auto parts store for $2.99. With the left front wheel removed you have easy access. Cheers!
Your channel is why I bought an ST. Thanks for the knowledgeable content.
You got it!
Same honestly
@@Gjeebs Did you guys change the transmission filter??
@ approximately 16:00 “...having Brad there to help out...” LOL 😂 you Mr Ben are Tom Sawyer... Brad painted your fence while you narrated and filmed. Gotta love it.
I was planning to do this on my 2014 tuxedo Black ST3 with 63K. I appreciate the video. My ST has been running fantastic as well.
I have the same. Mine has 135,000 zero issue bought it with 86,000
Just had my transmission oil changed at ford dealers, My car has done 46000 miles. 2013 focus st 3 . What a difference, You are so right. Gearbox feels so much stiffer and smoother. The technician was very surprised though, He asked was there any issues with the gearbox, when I said No, I just wanted to freshen up the oil in the gearbox, He said we don’t really do many gearbox oil changes unless the transmission has had a rebuilt. He said the oil was fine and very clean, But as soon as I jumped back in the car I could notice the difference right away. Feels great and definitely worth doing 👌
I gotta say you are definitely right about great results when you change the transmission fluid. Runs very smooth from there.
I feel you on putting the car on reverse. I thought it was just my st. Lol I did learn about putting it on 1st then reverse out of frustration not too long ago lol.
I have an early FiST. I had the fluid dropped the day I had it delivered, 150 miles later, and again at about 500 miles. Essentially until the sparkles went away. It was worth the money. It's like butter. Don't wait until 50k, do it today!
For those looking for the pump they used that he forgot to include in the description.

You and Brad do good work! Thanks for making note of where you are putting the jack stands. I suspected that the front lower control arms were OK to place jack stands.
thanks for the how-to...though I'm surprised you didnt upgrade using the Motul DCTF...two quarts for $40. Much better than what Ford uses, just like the Motul 600/660 brake fluid upgrade..if you're going to do the maintenance, might as well upgrade!
I changed mine at 10k for break-in purposes. Not sure if it was necessary, but it gave me a chance to add some MoS2 which greatly improved it's cold weather performance.
That’s a great idea
@@Gjeebs It really works, too. I added about half of a little squirt bottle of geartrain-specific Molybdenum Disulphide additive, and it eliminated 90% of the issues I was having with poor shift feel at low temperatures. Just don't get it on your clothes; it's extremely concentrated and runny like water. One drop was enough to turn an entire quart of trans fluid almost jet black!

Great video as usual Gjeebs! Highlighting another piece of maintenance I need to do haha! I am also going to change my purge valves and possibly clean my intake valves on my next maintenance interval.
Looks easy, just hit 22.5k on mines 2016 FoST, half way there for my transaxle fluid change. Congrats on the channel growing too
Thank you!

Dearly from a 2013 ST owner
A lot of the issues you talked about...struggling to get into reversed...I noticed on my '16 FoST. Mine has 350 whp with 30000 miles and I will replace my trans fluid with my next service in Nov. Thanks bud, I watch you out of Namibia in Africa.
Glad it helped brotha! Thanks for the support
@@Gjeebs Thanks for the great ST related content, I used your vid to replace my intercooler! Funny enough I have also thought of a Golf 7 R after watching Moog from Mighty Car Mods do a 11.2 1/4 mile time. But I have spent about 50000 Namibian dollars (3000 USD) on my car, can never recoup it, so I will definitely keep it lol 😂. Have a great weekend bud.
Hey! Know your comment is from ages ago but when you replaced the trans fluid did it fix the issue?
@@Tomix12MineCraft hi, it completely fixed my issue. The gears have no issues slotting in, even if the trans oil is cold. And since I don't drive a lot now I replace my trans oil every 2 years, regardless of mileage. The trans takes 1.8 litres of oil after removing the drain plug and the price is quite cheap. Never struggled getting into a gear since I did this. Hope it helps. Cheers.
I probably should consider this soon as well, and with the bigger turbo now it will only shift nicer
Good stuffs Gjeebs. Humor, knowlege, and a garage gnome. Can't beat this shit with a schtick.
Great one man. Going to do my fluid now!
“Only 115 degrees outside, so it’s a cool day”........ And I complain about it being 90 in Indianapolis..... And the governor came on the TV and advised everyone to stay indoors....
G H ...(Note to self: I didn’t think I would have to point this out)
...but it’s a DRY heat !! That’s right D R Y !
Everybody got that !! D R Y
Thomas Yenner Yes, and?
G H ...it’s kind of a standing joke with us east coasters; when we remark to Arizonians about temperatures above 100°, we often get the response “but it’s a dry heat… “. My response to that is “so, I have been in a sauna where the temperature is 100°, very low humidity, and it still damn hot. “
It ALL depends on the HUMIDITY!
Big valley Ford quick lane. $29 a qt!! Just grabbed it yesterday!
Awesome maintenance video as usual.
Thank you!
Good stuff. I’m at 43k and I’m looking to do this pretty soon too.
Its worth doing, my Focus SE Hatch with a manual started to mess up on shifting at 42k i replaced the transmission fluid problem solved
Great video as always Gjeebs!
Thank you!
Nice job on the transmission fluid change always great videos! I’ve been changing the transmission fluid in my ST about every 20,000.
I just rolled past 70k miles and no issues besides a cel for a crankshaft position sensor..just had to get under it and press the sensor snug
I just did mine at 32.5k miles because the shifting was getting gritty. It was already dirty af. Now it shifts buttery smooth again. I recommend to anyone with an ST to not wait until 50k. The oil does not hold up well to that point
Probably every 20,000 would be perfect
Well crap, I'm closing on 80K miles so I better do this fluid change!
Same :(
I'm to on 82k miles , did it goes great, do you recommend it?
Jeebs, when talking about a vehicles acceleration, like the Golf R, it is "quicker", not faster, than the Foc ST. If your talking top speed comparo or 1/4 trap speeds, yes the Golf R is faster by 6-8 mph in the traps and because it can top out at approx 155-160 mph and Foc ST can barely hit 140.... Faster refers to a designation of mph either in the 1/4 or top speed. 0-60 in a stock ST of 6.4 sec vs a stock Golf R DSG's 4.9 sec means the Golf R is much quicker.
Thanks. Great Vid
Definitely gonna do a fluid change in a few weeks. My 2015 st has 92k miles on it. (I bought it used and I know that's high) but I was wondering what oil you think is best for this vehicle when I do the oil change along with it. Thanks bud!
How is the result, any problems , do you recommend it on high mileage
What kind of pump and tubing did you use for this?
Something like this: *Pennzoil 36670 Pennzoil Fluid Transfer Pump - Quart*
www.amazon.com/Custom-Accessories-36670-Pennzoil-Transfer/dp/B001DKQZ9Q/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=fluid+pump&qid=1562186592&s=gateway&sr=8-5
I need to check my manual and see what needs changing. At 29k now
The Ford owner's manual specifies 1.9 quarts !
Tip use a ketchup bottle for the refill only a $1 at Walmart 😂 or empty saracha bottle the pump can get a lil messy
Any particular torque settings when tightening up the drain and fill screws?
16:25 Haters can suck it, its a "OUTSTANDING" platform!
Hello. How many liters of oil did you get into the gearbox?
I can tell you two have "experimented" lol
You need a quickjack. Love it to get the whole car off the ground 21"
New subscriber ! Very good knowledge from this video I have a 2017 st focus but does anybody ever have a little trouble going into 1st gear not major just gotta give it a little more push anybody ??
Not all the times just sometimes and it makes a little clank noise has anybody else had this ?
@@OBEY123451 yup have had the same issue occasionally getting it into first, i have a 16 st. I have the same problem with reverse, just put into 1st let it roll then put it back into R.
adam douglas yeah same hopefully it’s nothing just how it is . Thanks for letting me know !
Make sure the top fill bolt is removed so it doesn't gurgle and make a mess when you remove it after the lower drain bolt 😂
More content!!
I’ll have another video out tomorrow. Same time
Ty
I like the Focus ST vids, but I think you'd do even better with subs and likes if you add different content. You were made to be a UA-cam star my friend. Maybe religion, politics (probably not lol), how to vids, cooking, etc. You got this mane!
Thank you and I agree, it’s time for change. I have some big things planned so stay tuned:)
This may be a dumb question but I am having no luck when I google it , is there a transmission filter on the 2017 Focus st ? Or do you just have to change the fluid ?
Just change the fluid. No filter
Whats it like to service a Golf R DSG though? could you do it yourself??
No clue.
hi man, excuse my ignorance and my english jajaja , but i am wrong or this oil fit to automatic gearbox or is used on mechanical gearbox too? I appreciate your time thanks
I would read your owners manual to see what your car requires. That’s what I did
@@Gjeebs in effect, the owner's manual specifies that for manual transmission the oil should be BOT350-M3 / WSS-M2C200-D2, but I have seen that many users use the xt-11-QDC for automatic transmissions.
I do not understand why?
@@todoxnada66 A lot of modern manual transmissions are specced for ATF. It's not that uncommon. Could be a viable choice for your transmission
12:35 how much is it 👀
where did your friend go for walnut blasting???
He did it himself
would he do it for 💵?
The amount of brakes dust on my 14 god lord. I need new pads with less dust, an suggestions?
They changed the pads on 15 and up models. Maybe try and get those?
Zach Lyons hawk performance ceramic pads. Night and day difference and better grab at the pedal.
Do you fill it till it overflows out the fill hole?
Yea I think we did
Would u recommend a focus st?
Yes I would
Hey man where can I buy that pump?
I would check amazon. I’m not sure where he got it
Thanks man love your channel btw! I found it last night on Amazon actually
Annnd now in 2021 the fluid is $41.27/qt!
2016 with 95k on it, I think I'm about 45k late.
I'm on 82 , did you do it ,how did it go , help
Who is Brad ??
An American Hero
13:00 lol placebo affect the new fluid hasnt even gotten into the gears how can you tell if their is a difference or not?
If you have a manual transmission car and you haven’t changed the fluid yet, change it and let me know how it feels. It’s night and day
16:28.......😂😂😂😂
Should have used motul
ALL Amsoil products are overrated !
