Ralliart 45,000 Service SST Fluid Flush.
Hoping some one can shed some light on this...
i have been to one dealership and got quotes from 4 others... via phone calls.
Dealer 1) 45,000 Major Service that includes changing the SST Fluid = $960
(dealer recently changed my oil even know i supplied my own it was $110 i thought was a bit steep) was advised to do my 45,000 soon. That's when he dropped in the $960 price tag for the service
Dealer 2) Normal kinda service, they top up break fluid coolant check breaks = $350 Said the SST does not need to be changed to 108,000 service
Dealer 3) $600 for the service, asked if that included the SST Fluid change, That was a NO, extra $400 for the SST Change... they said its just been revised due @ 90,000
Dealer 4) $590 for the service inc oils for engine diff's and coolant. did not know about when or if it included the SST fluid.
Dealer 5) $640 for the service & SST flush and change.
From my knowledge (not that great) its prob a good thing to change the SST fluid as been read on the forums. The car is not driven really hard few hill's drives on the weekend would be the most i put my foot down & shift a lot. but the previous owner had it tuned and on a dyno ect... so i would like to flush it so its a fresh start witch i think people will agree.
Just wanted some advice on what to do?
When really does the fluid need to be change?
WHAT THE HELL are there dealers doing... seems like they just make up and charge what ever they like.
Ofey is kindly putting a list of oils / fluids i would need and hope to get them off troy a bit cheaper then at the dealer.
i have a mate with a workshop that might be able to help me change the SST fluid would this be ok with warranty ect...
Bit of a long story.

i done the 45k and sst my self. hard part about the sst is knowing how much to put in... there is no services list on how much to put in so you have to catch then put the same back in. the whole services took me and another mechanic 5 hours after work on a sat. you will need to bleed the center diff as well there is a bleeder nipel on the transfer and fill the bottle in the boot.... it will gravity bleed.
the voices may not be real, but they have some pretty good ideas :D
..... If streets could talk they would Beg For Mercy!!! 151.6kw & 330nm @ all 4 paws .....

I tried to get a dollar figure from Brett on how much it'd cost to change the SST oil but he replied with the following:
I guess we'll just have to wait for this video lol.
[Brett] they would be best to watch the video and THEN decide as the costs vary HEAPS depending on:
· std oil or high perf oil
· oem filter or re usable filter
· trans cover for extra capacity or not
· trans cooler or not.....
You can tell them that the Mitsubishi oil is hard to get as is the OEM filter and very few workshops have the equipment (or knowledge) to do it correctly
we now carry in stock:
after market filter kits
clutch kits
trans pans
optional dip stick (the SST trans does not have one!)
go to the mrt site and click performance/transmission
I guess we'll just have to wait for this video lol.
