pay the $150, and say, Thank You! as you leave. I assume they are including the filter and fluid in that price! That is dirt cheap!i have a 1991 ford explorer with a a4ld, i want to do a total fluid change. the trans shop wants $150.00 is there anyway i can perform this at home.
thanks.
Just to get this right, you are saying that 50k miles is not worth $150?yea then all the crap that is in your tranny gets loosened up and gets stuck in the valve body everyone that i know that had a shop do it was replacing the tranny less than 50,000miles later
Please explain how fluid running through the cooler lines (which it ALWAYS does when the engine is running) loosens crap up in the transmission. The shop hooks the machine up to the truck and starts the engine. The transmission's own pump pumps fluid out the line like it always does. Except instead of going through the cooler, it dumps into a tank on the machine. The ONLY thing the machine does is make sure fluid gets pumped back into the trans the same rate as it comes out. As far as the trans knows, the fluid is just going through the cooler like normal.yea then all the crap that is in your tranny gets loosened up and gets stuck in the valve body everyone that i know that had a shop do it was replacing the tranny less than 50,000miles later
If your response was to what I said, that wasn't where I was going at all. All I meant is that you still would have to deal with the filter.yea then all the crap that is in your tranny gets loosened up and gets stuck in the valve body everyone that i know that had a shop do it was replacing the tranny less than 50,000miles later
Then everyone you know who has had a trans flush done had a transmission that was probably already on borrowed time. Not to mention that the average life expectancy of an automatic is limited as it is FULL OF CLUTCHES.yea then all the crap that is in your tranny gets loosened up and gets stuck in the valve body everyone that i know that had a shop do it was replacing the tranny less than 50,000miles later
