For the 2000 Ford F-250, the transmission fluid capacity is 6.8 pints for the 5 & 6-speed manual, 6.4 quarts for initial fill, or 17 quarts for total fill for the 4-speed automatic transmission. The recommended type for the truck is Mercon V. Transmission fluid serves as both oil and hydraulic fluid, aiding gear shifts, transmission cooling, and lubrication of moving parts. It's advised to replace the transmission fluid approximately every 60,000 miles. The price of the fluid typically ranges from $8 to $11 per quart depending on the store and brand. Labor costs for changing the fluid can amount to around $120 to $150, not including additional parts.
The 2000 Ford F250 with an automatic transmission can hold up to 17.6 quarts of transmission fluid.
