unfortunately these vehicles are so old that the auto tech's fail to properly do what is required. is the transmission fluid type listed on the record ? the fluid to use is DEXRON VI NOT DEXRON III !!! ALSO you DO NOT FLUSH these transmissions ...... so if they did flush it with a machine then they killed it . also dexron III is a acid creating fluid that GM no longer approves of its use in any GM vehicle. now you may say or the shop may say it is the correct fluid . unfortunately GM did not send out a notice to owners , that own these that this fluid is destructive !!!! [year 2006]. GM went bankrupt because of this and other factors .. this fluid caused them a huge loss ... tranny shops use the III fluid because its good for their business ... why use the proper fluid that costs more $$$.. more profit at your expense , also more work !
