NO NO NO NO!!!! If it ain't broke don't fix it!!!! Just do a filter and fluid change....this comes directly from a friend who is a trans and driveline specialist. He has the fluid swap machine and turns anyone away with over 60,000 miles. He absolutely, flat out refuses to do mine. Just HIS $.02....not mine!!! :yesnod:

Re: transmission ?? flush out or not????? (badnewstravelsfast)
If a customer request a flush on a trans that hasnt been serviced for 60 k then sure turn them away. The equipment is designed for prevenetive maintenance to eliminate the buildup of varnish and clutch material in all the passages not cleaned with a filter change. If used for this purpose it does a great job of keeping out the bad stuff and extending trans life.
