Change fluid and filter every 100,000 miles. Add one pint of Lucas. It'll run forever. Never ever do a transmission flush for any reason. Don't let any "expert" talk you into it.

I have a good friend who worked for Tuscaloosa Chevrolet. He feels the same way. I asked him right after I posted this.

Agree. drop the pan and change the filter(s). Though I don't use the Lucas I have heard several who believe in it. And I like the 80k interval for whatever reason.

Flushing pushes loose metal particles back through your transmission. Transmissions have a filter or screen that can plug up when it’s flushed. You're flushing chunks through your system causing internal damage. If you have a filter – it needs to be replaced. Or if it's just a screen, it needs to be taken out and washed. They don’t do that when it’s flushed. Flushing won't cause the transmission to fail but it may speed up the process because it pushed metal particles back through the system. Anyone who does transmission work for a living would never flush their own transmission. That should tell all you need to know.

Anyone who does transmission work for a living would never flush their own transmission. That should tell all you need to know. Non-sense. Most quality trans service machines don’t push anything. They are merely a valve/holding tank for your transmission. The cars/trucks trans pump simply pumps out the old while sucking in the new. They add zero pressure to the system. It’s just a simple fluid exchange. With dropping the pan you are leaving half to 2/3 old burnt fluid.
