[QUOTE="Tundra Dweller, post: 23404, member: 6876"] The flush systems are a bad idea as they stir up all the sediment that collects in the bottom of the tranny. No, the filter does not catch all this as proven by a few trans pans I have dropped. Change it per mileage, not color IMHO. Sounds like an easy DIY job per Ammo Joe.
