Nice, can't wait to do mine. They test transmission fluid I see too, maybe I should do that too...
IDK how you would get a trans fluid sample as there’s no dipstick to use a vacuum type pump, I’ve read here on the forum there’s a fill plug on the trans itself maybe that might work, unless you drop the pan.
Try searching in the transmission section others might know or done it,
I myself have never test sampled that fluid and luckily had no transmission problems. I have changed filter & fluid at around 50,000 mi On previous vehicles.

I would just do it when I change the fluid, in another 8k miles.

First oil change since ownership. Assuming they used Motorcraft 5w30 since it was dealer changed - but, who knows?

I stuck with that oil for this change because I have a few pre-paid changes rolling over from our 2016 Transit. I noticed in the report that they also put in BG MOA additive and 44k in the fuel tank…I didn’t ask for that. But, I guess we’ll see what it does on the next analysis.

I plan to switching to Motul after the pre-paid runs out.
