Okay, lookin for good reasons why and why not. I inherited the "preventive maintenance" gene and usually do it and never had a problem thereafter. Some say if it aint broke dont fix it, but Ive often violated that rule lol
When I have a vehicle with an auto tranny and even thought it shifts PERFECT, somewhere around 100,000 miles I get this uncontrollable urge to have the tranny fluid power flushed (supposedly that changes the torque converter also??, mechanic buddy has huge expensive Snap On or other brand of power AT flusher) and refilled and change the filter also, and nowadays I refill with Synthetic Fluid. IVE NEVER HAD ONE GO BAD AFTER THAT. Ive also considerd hanging a magnet on but never have.
NOTE Im my RV or trucks I also add a big honkin external tranny fluid cooler, I think they help big time if youre pulling something.
ANY GOOD REASONS WHY I SHOULD STOP THE PRACTICE???? Ive heard some say never change it is why Im asking
