We've had a thread on the highest mileage without an engine rebuild so it's time for one on transmissions.
195k and counting.

 

1997 T&C LXi - 196,000

Just had trans fluid changed for the 3rd or 4th time. Felt like it was shifting at highway speeds when it wasn't. Mechanic said trans had codes for overheating and burnt fluid. Fluid had recently started turning brown.

Flushed ALL old fluid out, changed filter and filled with new "genuine" fluid.

Drove 1200 highway miles, purred like a kitten.

 

96 GC LE 212K miles but I know there's plenty out there with higher mileage.

 

220K miles on a '99 GC, since traded. All original except for one speed sensor and solenoid pack. Added external cooler and full flow filter. Changed from ATF+3 to ATF+4 at approx. 50K. It still shifted like new at 220K.

 

Over 375,000 miles on my 2007 sxt which is a taxicab. Still shifts nice. I change the tranny fluid and filter every 50-60,000 miles.

 

That surely must be a record.

 

My 99' caravan is at 380,000km and still goin. Just blew a gasket last winter but doesn't effect performance at all

 

I have an 89 Turbo with over 300,000 miles on it. The trans fluid has been brown and smelly for the last 150,000 miles. I figured on pulling the tranny and rebuilding once it started to slip, but it never happened. Utter craziness!

Cheers!

I have a 1994 3.8 Grand Caravan (FWD only) with 167,000 on the original transmission. The fluid has been changed with correct mopar fluid every 20,000 miles or so.

 

My old "95 GC had 247,000 miles. I NEVER changed the fluid or filter. I was afraid to after about 150,000. I stopped driving it cause the front struts were original and junk.
My '04 GC just turned 197,000...same thing, haven't changed the filter or fluid. I do tow an enclosed snowmobile trailer with both.
