I’m gonna be honest; I’ve worked with and for a pretty decent number of mechanics and at least the ones I’ve worked around absolutely do not care enough or have the time to lie to you or sell you things you don’t need. They just want the money it’ll take to pay themselves without you coming back with a problem because then they have to fix it again, usually for free

As Dcc357 said, you replace the filter and pan gasket. When draining out the fluid, i got 4.9x liters out of my transmission when there should be 5L in there. That extra 50ml or less of old fluid won't damage anything. That's why these Benz's will outlast any car as long as the preventative maintenance is done.

I flushed transmission fluid on my 03 Grand Marquis with 175k miles, but manually not by a flush machine. First, dropped the pan and removed 5 quarts. Then I removed the cooler line that is going back to the transmission from radiator and started the car. Fluid started to flow out of the line and as soon as very less fluid started to come out, I turned off the car. The car takes 14 quarts of Mercon V, but the car took only 12 quarts and it was full. I performed this back in 2017 and since then the transmission shifts like a dream. So lags, no jerks nothing. Smooth shifting like new. The car now has 220k miles. So from my experience, manual flushing of the transmission worked out well. I never changed the fluid before 175k miles. It was the one and the only time I did because my torque converter had the common shudder issue. After the flush, I also added Dr tranny instant shudder fix additive as well. I did try Dr tranny before flushing as well but it work more than 4 months.

If you do it regularly is the key, (change fluid). If you let dirt get stuck somewhere, it is best to leave it where it is. Your transmission life will be shorter than had you changed fluid often, but sending the dirt elsewhere can cause immediate failure.

3 reasons for slipping: 1. Worn clutches or bands. Mechanical failure. 2. Passage in valve body clogged with sludge. This is where new fluid can help. 3. Valve body bolts loose. Causing internal leaking from one passage to another causing lower pressure. This is the defect that thickeners can help.

Without my knowledge my mechanic change the transmission fluid because it was a dirty and I had a feeling my uncle never did that.

Fun fact: car companies don't make new transmissions. The transmission in your new car was ripped out of some old junker from the 90's and sandblasted. Then it got welded back together and stuffed with good components that came out of old junkers too. After the absolute minimum number of new parts are added to get it working, its stamped as new and put inside a brand new car.

I was always told when it comes to transmissions, only do a drain and refill (or partial drain and refill) --- never flush transmissions, especially ones that either have not had the fluid changed or it's really dirty. It's one of those things you either do it regularlly at 60-90k or you just leave it alone and hope for the best. I've seen a few cars where people even just drained fluid that had never been drained on cars with 150k on them and they never ran right again (they ran OK before the fluid change though) and they ended up junking them a year or two later... On my last few vehicles, it was done every 60k.

If it's a CVT I'd consider changing it because those fluids are much more sensitive and must be changed regularly from what I've been told. My wife had a CVT on her Nissan Rogue. We changed the fluid every 40K and it still crapped out at 120K miles.

I should have listened to videos like this. I purchased a used rx330 '04, seemed like transmission fluid wasn't changed in about 100k miles. It had 160k miles on it. I found a mechanic who was a Japanese car expert. He told me it's safe. Said he's done it many times. Prior to the flush (non-powered/ non pressurized) flush, the car shifted so smoothly and beautifully. After the flush, it takes longer to get into 4th gear with a lag. It runs fine after a few months but I will hate myself if the transmission breaks within the next year or so.

Scotty - I am so mad that I found you in adulthood - when I was in college, a "family friend" worked on my 2000 Toyota Avalon XLS when I was away. He changed my transmission fluid and that summer was the worst one of my life. My car was ruined forever & he never admitted it was his fault. The transmission slipped constantly and 2nd gear was the worst!

He's spot on. As a life long operator of high mileage automobiles this is the closest explaination of reality I have seen. Older transmissions are hit or miss and flushing can be just a gamble. Mostly as a last resort when you think your gonna need a new transmission. The best thing you can ever do is keep it from slipping at all cost. Don't be the asshat that pushes a slipping transmission with a heavier foot. It never pans out. Long drawn out soft shifts are transmission suicides and abnormal high rpm s with little change in a actual movement create heat and wear clutches. Best choice, stop immediately , top fluid and keep it that way.

So I replaced my rad and I didn’t know the fluid got cooled down in the radiator. I ran the engine without the rad and everything flushed out. Black fluid came out , a LOT of it did. I started filling it with 1 quart, high rpm. I then put another quart, again, high rpm. I put in 4 quarts total by this point, it got a lot better, but still, high rpm. I finally put a total of 8 quarts and now the car accelerates well but now the sound the transmission makes when it revs is completely different but I get power from it.

I paid 4,000 for this car and not willing to pay 4,000 for another transmission. Im hoping that I'm not causing too much damage to it..

I had to get a 2002 Honda Accord with 86k miles, and I've been experiencing my transmission, throwing me back and forth in my seat each time i accelerate, or it revs to almost 5k rpm before actually accelerating and jerks me back and forth in my seat. (Mega pause) I HAD to buy it, and it cost way too much (7.4k). The interior was in good condition, but the outside had dents in the hood, door dings on the side, and surface rust on the back. My mom took $4k out of my account during the summer before i had to go to my freshman year of college this year because she didn't want to work this exact summer. I would've had 13k$ to actually buy something that was worth the genuine hell i put myself through working near 40 hours a week during high school for 9 months straight. But I was left with a little around $8.8k. There were genuinely no options in maryland i had at the time during August of this year, so i had no choice. I thought about modding and even adding performance mods to it, but i honestly dont think it's worth it atp. I am saving for another car that'll potentially pop up on the few car apps i have... i really hope im able to get something i feel like i deserve, not to sound selfish... Sorry for the rant.

You can flush (safely) your own fluid. Get 2 buckets fill the one with new fluid and leave one empty. Disconnect the hoses put one hose that sucks the atf in the filled bucket and the other hose that empties the old atf in the empty bucket. Start the engine and wait until the empty bucket is filled with the old fluid and the bucket with the new atf is empty. Voila!

Two months ago I hit 85k. I took it to a transmission shop for a fluid change. The tech told me that the fluid was impeccable. Whoever had it before me kept up on it. No slips, very smooth shifting. And this is a Hemi Jeep.

Hey Scotty. Thank you so much for this video. After seeing this video a few weeks ago, my 2010 Scion Xb with 208k miles on it had an code of P0741. This car was gifted to me. The previous owner failed to do any transmission maintenance on it. The transmission symptoms were the high revving during idle or driving and couldn't drive pass 35 mph. So because of how black the trans fluid was, we drained the fluid, removed the trans pan and trans filter. Put on a new gasket and trans filter. Thoroughly cleaned the trans pan. Added news trans fluid and Lucas trans fix. Cleared the code and wow! Car runs so good. Drove it for 5 days taking my kids to and from school with no issues. So a BIG THANK YOU for saving me $1,645 to rebuild the trans. Fingers crossed 🤞 that this trans maintenance will help the car run longer.

@@Rip-c4p this is not an easy job due to having to remove the sub frame just to get the trans pan off. This car is not easy to work on because it is so compact.

And, I've changed the trans fluid 2x and the car still runs great 😁 well... except it eats up a lot of oil each week due to bad pistons from the manufacturer.

I admit it was the first time I'd changed the trans fluid, and I've had the car since about 110k. It seemed to do the trick, car was shifting smooth and I was happy. Now a few days later, the trans started shifting really wierd, up and down through the gears like it doesn't know which gear it's supposed to be in. So I turned around and parked it. Now I'm wondering if the trans was gonna do this anyway, or if it started as a result of changing the fluid.

Dealer took ownership of the problem, put me in a rental while they rebuilt the transmission. I sold that car a week later.

I agree with all of it and I also am a firm believer that if you just drive cool, like you should be doing anyway, and keep up with the recommended interval of maintenance, you'll never experience any of this. You are your cars worst enemy or best friend.

I changed the transmission fluid in my Mazda BT-50 and it actually shifts well, but they charged me $150, so I don't know if it's cheap, but I think it's worth it if good mechanics like you, Scotty, change it. As always I love the content. Happy Father's Day to you, Scotty!

$150 is a good price. A shop in Georgia charged me $199 for my 14 mustang.
