Tim, it probably won't hurt. Same process like on our 4T65E transaxles in the Grand Prixs. No more than 8 ounces of "Seafoam Trans Tune" for about 30 minutes drive time.

BTW - Overall the 4T45E transaxle is alot more reliable than the 4T65E. Less overall problems. Just checking the ATF fluid level is a PITA since there is no dipstick.
