Re: Tranny problems

have the tranny fluid and filter changed first it that don't solve the problem then you may have valves sticking ( fluid and filter ) always the cheap way first

Re: Tranny problems

I never heard that before.I'd go with new fluid.Even better would be flush,changing the fluid and filter doesn't get out all the old fluid.But thats the question,is the tranny worth the flush?Flushes can cost $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.
