[QUOTE="Blown09, post: 1048996, member: 78012"] I wouldn’t use Mr Transmission shop. Sounds like he is trying to recruit new business. While you can have issues when doing flushes on higher mileage stuff-rather-the only horror stories you hear about are with higher mileage stuff, the general consensus is new fluid is better than old fluid, and a clean filter is MUCH better than a clogged filter. Most of these old tales of transmissions issues after a flush are with older, less modern transmissions, and also trans fluid of lessor quality. Leaving in old fluid and filters is a guaranteed way to make sure you have transmission issues in the future. I’ve stopped watching Scotty, mainly due to his lack of depth of a subject when making YouTube videos. He hits on the stuff that makes good clickbait-without talking about the small details that could prevent the topic at hand. I’ve done numerous trans flushes on high mileage vehicles, and have never had an issue. Drain, replace filter, follow manufacture fill procedure-done. [/QUOTE]
