Bought used car. I know after a while if trans fluid has been ran a long time you really should not change it.
I am kind of in that grey area. Bought a use 2006 Pontiac G6 3.9L with a 4T65E 58,000 miles GM trans with Dexron VI being the factory fill.
(1.) Leave it alone
(2.) Cycle new fluid in and old out on trans machine. No cleaners, no new filter, no pan drop. Just new fluid in.
(3.) Get the works with cleaners, flush, new filter.
(4.) Get the works but done but no cleaners.
I am fond of option #2 as it midly invasive.
Thoughts?
