Just flushed my trans today what came out was pretty brown to begin with... Good thing I did it when I did. It seems to shift smoother... not sure if that is slipping or if it is good... *shrug*

I've flushed several aw71 and aw52 transmissions without incident. If it shifts fine now it will probably benefit from a flush.

I just did the flush... Anyhow... since the lucas trans fix said it stops hard shirfts, I presumed that the softer shifts were a good sign.

Shifting as it should now. Fluid was low. The dipstick was reading wrong.

I mix the TransFix into the last two quarts of ATF I'm throwing at the trans....
if it's COLD outside, I leave the bottles in the house and add them straight-away
when I fetch them....at the shop, I can just sit them on the floor near the stove
and cruise that way.....
