I only got one response
Last time I made an inquiry I only got one response, but it was the right answer.
My C5, M6 did not shift worth a darn so I changed the Dextron tranny fluid and it made a world of difference. No more grinding gears, no more hunting for a gear at stop. I'm guessing that the dextron picks up lots of moisture over time and it changes its properties? Thanks whoever you are!

Good deal that you got the tranny shifting like it should.

I have the fluid and filter packs in my A4 changed every 2 years...I drive it every day, not like some garage queens that 600 miles a year, so it figure it is good prevention to keep it well lubed and happy inside...not terribly expensive.....and since I also have the shifts all reprogrammed by my dyno guy, I want to give it every chance to stay alive.
