I hate this topic. I've done a full tranny fluid swap on at least 25 high mileage cars. Every time I swear I heard the tranny say "thank you Woody, I needed that". Never had an issue. I call this the "My 1967 Powsrslide blew up after a tranny fluid swap urban legend"

To be clear. On the 25 cars I am talking about I did not do what I call a "tranny flush". I did what I call a fluid transfer. I would either drop the pan or drain the pan if it had a plug. Then I would use the vehicles own tranny pump to pump out the rest of the fluid until I did a 100% fluid transfer, old to new!. I used the recommended fluid and never used an addictive.
