[QUOTE="PoManNox, post: 25710, member: 8300"] Yep, the main thing is getting fresh fluid in there. I would do 2 drain/fills now with a little bit of run time in between and a 3rd in the not so distant future. You will find the fluid to be almost black at 50K miles if it hasn't been changed. I also added a Votex brand magnetic drain plug to the 6AT in my 2021 Equinox. It picks up metallic paste every time you pull it, but it's so tiny I doubt it does much other than lighten you wallet ~$20. As far as I know there's two filters in the 6 and 9 speeds. The standard screen/felt type for the pump suction, then a small cartridge filter buried in there as well. No way to get them unless you tear the thing apart. [/QUOTE]
