What normally kills a AT is buildup of slutch from the cluches that goes to the oil. Therefore they usually die when people don't change oil like they should.


How come when I open up a Magnefine I see almost nothing in the media section? I would think the material from the clutches would go there. But again the few I have checked were mine and the transmissions had their ATF changed out on a regular basis.

Are you a fan of Magnefine?
 
If you have overfilled a transmission, then get a fish tank hose from Walmart and siphon the fluid back out through the dipstick hole.
