    I bet their trans "flush" is really just a fluid transfer like I described with the buckets.... except its a machine that does the pumping instead of the trans. No big deal with that.

    I think Chrysler recommends staying away from flushes the push a cleaning solution through....

    ya that's what I get its just a fluid exchanged no cleaners just catching the old and replacing with new. The one down side is the filters don't get changed but I keep it on schedule so the fluid should be clean and there shouldn't be anything in there anyway to clog the filters at least I hope not LOL

    The reason i drain and fill every 15k is it was a recommendation from the guy that does most of the work on my jeep-'his been a jeep tech for years now. He said if I wanted my tranny to last, drain and fill every 15k. His wife drives a WK with 150k on it and he does the same and no problems there. He's been dealing with my jeeps for years now and I trust him. I'm coming up on 90k so I'll be doing both filters and a drain a flush.
