Hello,
My truck has about 154k miles on it. I bought it used this year. I have no idea when the last time the trans may have been serviced. I want to do a simple drain and fill. I do not want to do the forced flush one that the dealers do, i have been told by numerous mechanics and transmission techs that once its past 100k to not do that on auto transmissions.
My mechanic that i usually go to does not want to even do the drain and fill, he told me that even that can lead to problems on these older transmissions.
I have already bought the ATF fluid, the filter, replacement magnet and gasket. I just wanted to come on here and ask people what they thought and the exp they have had with their trans on their trucks
Thanks
Dan
