Walt,
Can you elaborate on the transmission fluid change ? type? where you changed it? dealer? etc. I was not able to get the life-time stuff from the dealer!!!!

thanks for the help
biilb


I have the gm transmission and I put red Mobil 1 dexron III in that I bought at pep boys
Cost about $5 a quart - I bought 5 if i remember right. I replaced the ATF in my power steering with it too.
I bought a new gasket and filter and followed the instructions on Pelicanparts.
The odd thing was that I had to put more fluid in after it got hot, when I first filled it shifting was not right and I drove it to warm it up then checked the fluid and instead of expanding it was low and I added another half a quart.

Hope that helps Bill

later,
Walt
