For a 2005 Chevy pickup equipped with an Allison transmission, you should use Allison Transmission Fluid, specifically the TES 295 specification fluid. This is typically Allison's TranSynd fluid, which is designed to provide optimal performance and protection for the transmission. It's essential to avoid using other types of ATF, as they may not meet the specific requirements of the Allison transmission. Always check the owner's manual for the recommended fluid specifications.
Depends on what type of fluid you have in your transmission. If it has Allison's transynd in it, I would typically change the spin on filter once a year, then send an oil sample in to Allison through an authorized Allison transmission dealer. The results of the oil analysis will tell you if the oil needs to be changed, as well as if you have any kind of wear materials from any kind of problems developing inside your transmission.
The fluid capacity, of your Allison transmission, is 28 quarts. The filter will take and additional pint. The manufacturer recommends that you do not over fill the transmission.
AnswerThe Allison 1000 Automatic Transmission Automatic Transmission, 5 speed 1000 Initial Fill is 7.4 quarts[2] Automatic Transmission, 5 speed 1000 Total Fill is 13.0 quarts.DO NOT drain the fluid if only the transmission spin-on oil filter is being replaced.
