The recommended transmission fluid for the 2004 Ford F-250 is ATF+4. For the 6-speed manual version, it requires 11.6 pints without an oil cooler or 12.7 pints with an oil filter. On the other hand, the total fill for this model is 19 quarts, and the initial fill for the 4 & 5-speed automatic is 7.5 quarts. Transmission fluid serves as both oil and hydraulic fluid, aiding gear shifts, transmission cooling, and lubrication of moving components. Prices for transmission fluid average around $10 per quart, varying depending on the store and brand. If you opt for a mechanic to change the transmission fluid, expect labor costs to range from $120 to $150.
