Quote "The worst thing you can do is change your transmission fluid!" Discussion
Over the years I've heard many people say this. The last two were the Chevy owner across the street and the transmission shop guy.
One thing he said was "That gunky fluid with all the particles in it is making the clutches work"
That makes no sense to me.
Here are two topics:
1. Does the old fluid have properties that are beneficial to the trans?
2. Why gradually change fluid by drain and fill several times with 1000 miles in between instead of just drain and fill several times at once?
