Allison Transmission recommends that customers use fluid analysis as the primary method for determining fluid change intervals. In the absence of a
fluid analysis program, the fluid change interval listed in the chart above should be used. Change filters according to chart above even if a fluid
analysis shows that the fluid doesn’t need to be changed.
3
When the transmission contains a mixture of fluids (defined as the quantity of non-TranSynd or non-TES 295 fluid remaining in the transmission after
a fluid change combined with the quantity of TranSynd or TES295 required to fill the transmission to the proper level), perform the fluid & filter change
according to the TES389 intervals. Refer to the Maintenance Manual for TES389 intervals.
4
Extended TranSynd or TES 295 fluid & filter change intervals are only allowed with Allison High-Capacity filters.
