My '03 Chevy 3500 van is at 99k and has never had an ATF change. It has the heavy duty trans.. forgot the code but the parts guy said it's basically a TH400 with and overdrive??? Couple of questions..
1. What type of fluid? I am a fan of Mobil 1.. and they have DEX VI and also a full synthetic trans fluid?? Can you mix these new ones with the old factory stuff?
2. I was going to just drain a few quarts and top off now. In the meantime I wanted to order some inline transmission filter. Then in a few weeks, do a full fluid exchange. Is this a good idea?
3. Or should I do a few drain and fills over the next couple of months to get the trans acclimated to the new clean fluid slowly?
