I had one of these done at the Chevy dealer, it made in a big difference in the way the tranny performed and they did a good job :cheers:

From what I've read & heard from various sources, about 50% say the tranny & coolant fluid exchange process (BG, Wynn's, etc.) is great since it gets all the old fluid out....while 50% say it causes major tranny & coolant system damage. I don't know what to believe at this point. But i do know that every Chevy dealer service dept. now uses the BG fluid exchange process. So if you want it serviced at a dealer, you don't have much of a choice. Also, be aware that they no longer drop the pan or change the filter. No need to, since this process supposedly backwashes the filter. :skep:
