nnnnnnnnnnnnnooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.............
The best thing to do is to take it to a repair shop that has a transmission flushing machine. That will change all of the fluid in the system.
if you change trans fluid REGULARLY like you should, flushing is not necessary
It depends on the service plan that is required to maintain the warranty. You should first check those documents to details regarding required service. If nothing is stated about flushing the transmission, that particular maintenance then is at your discretion. Flushing a transmission is not "required" unless the service agreement considers it a part of the maintenance plan in order to maintain the warranty. A service warranty can be voided for a number of reasons, so it is important to read the contract, especially the fine print. Review the contract, which will specify if radiator flushing is a part of the long-term maintenance schedule.
Bring to a shop that has equipment to do so
YES! You would help extend the transmission as well as have a smoother shift from your vehicle.
Servicing the transmission properly requires replacement of the filter screen and flushing the system with a machine built for that purpose.
Alright, dumb a**, there is a drain plug on the trans pan on the super duty. So according to you, that means you should flush it right? yes. usually flushing an auto transmission will stir up the gunk on bottom of pan and clog up valves only people that tell u to flush a transmission, are so called mechanics that hope to make more money and really dont know what they are doing if you were supposed to flush a transmission, there would be a drain plug on bottom of transmission oil pan
I made this up, but it works OK I guess. Autopotaphobia
I question the practice why not remove the transmission pan and drain,replace old filter and gasket?? Just makes sense to me
no there is still fluid in the torque convertor,lines & cooling tank
Flushing involves a machine that hooks up to the cooler lines and pushes fluid in as the transmission pumps it out.
