[QUOTE="VenomousChick, post: 5431009, member: 62309"] Hiya.. im a service advisor- so let me tell ya the truth. A flush is WAY more beneficial than conventional pan service. Doing it that way only does 5-6 quarts of fluid. flushing the thing gets 16 quarts of fluid out and cleans the screen. Some new transmissions dont even have filters anymore. As for the bucket method.. I have never heard of it-- not meaning it doesnt work, but if you run the vehicle like that you can damage the clutches due to lack of lubrication. In the long run- its worth the extra bucks! People who dont do it at all run into big problems.. I have not yet replaced a transmission that has had fluid flushes every 30k miles. Now- keep in mind- use the proper fluid- (ie- dextron 6 etc) otherwise it can cause harsh shifts. Keep in mind- dirty fluid can cause trans sensors (pulse generators in valve body) to go bad!! Try to get into a dealer to have it done so its done right with the right stuff. Good Luck!! [/QUOTE]
