Bought a Suburban once that probably never had it changed and the SUV had been used to tow horses at one point. Worst transmission I had; fluid was pitch black as soot and yet it was so thick that you couldn't move the gear shift easily so maybe the seller pulled a used car lot trick. The trans rear gear went under a month after purchase. I still have it since I had someone work on it for relatively cheap; $1,100 in 2015. He did it as a side job out of his garage.

Another reason to keep your cooling system in good shape is that some transmission coolers are built into the radiator, if the radiator gets too hot it can crack, and if this happens to the passage with the transmission cooler the coolant will get blown into the transmission creating a strawberry milk shake that will dissolve the clutches in your transmission.

I agree with you on the tire replacement on all wheel drive. It makes absolute sense. I taught my kids with two wheel drive if you're going to replace the tire always do them in pairs. The reason being not to mix tread patterns on a single axle. I don't even like mixing tread patterns on the entire car. If every tire has the same stopping power and traction you're less likely to have control problems in adverse conditions such as rain high temperatures snow and Etc. Always do them in pairs on the same axle.

New filter new fluid ( it needed it) no difference not even a little!!!!! Really upset was about to pull my transmission it's 4x4 which really stinks, (a new one is about 4500.00) but I talked to a real transmission guy( an honest one) and he said some of my electronics are grounded thru my O2 sensors and they were bad along with my battery and mass air flow sensor. Changed all that on a Sunday transmission shifts and drives like a new. So I changed my rear differential and my transfer case and front differential a little love goes a long, and the transmission problem reminded of that. Like your videos kept it up. Sir

I had a license and a profession at 18 years old already. When I moved to the USA I got a CDL because I know how to do it and have the knowledge of how to do it correctly. In the USA a millions of children are growing up in families of single moms or even in a full family where children can not gain general knowledge about how and what to do with their vehicles. As a result of poor knowledge or its absence, we see breakdown cars on the shoulders of the roadways and they create interference and are a threat to the car owner and all road users.

Scotty, that had to be the best video I've ever seen you do, and I've watched a lot of yours. Very informative. I'd like to see a series like this on almost every vehicle ie. my 1500 Silverado...their problems, how to try to keep them from breaking down. What to do for them for preventive maintenance beyond the usual.

There are some exceptions to replacing 4 tires on AWD vehicles. For example, you can replace one tire, if it is an exact match for size, speed rating, load index, manufacturer, etc. and doesn’t have more than 1” difference in the overall circumference. Some vehicle manufacturers are stricter and some are more lenient.

Thank you for your videos man, but what you are saying is this, not always is transmission itself , many other factor could feel like the transmission not working right .
