[QUOTE="RidgeHunter, post: 2865229, member: 4319"] I'm super anti-trans flushes. It's pretty common for transmissions to go out after a flush. Now, correlation does not equal causation and there's one school of thought that says people often take their vehicle in for a flush AFTER experiencing problems with it, then bang it goes out. Other theories say it can stir up (literally) trouble in a high mileage tranny that has been unserviced. I've never touched the auto trans in my 2007 Tacoma (almost 230K miles....I'll just run it till it fails...if it ever does). I just add fluid to my old Chevy with a TH350 (it's a slight leaker). My school of thought on auto transmissions is to keep the proper fluid level and run them until they don't work. Drain and refill what you can if you're bored and have nothing better to do. YMMV.
