Automatic tranny guys

I just thought about this seeing all the posts about tranny probs going on right now..

get your tranny FLUSHED and refilled w/ synthetic for the winter.. your car needs a complete flush (not just drain and refill) if you have more then 30-40k miles and haven't done it before.. (i think they wont let you do it if you have more then 90k and havent had it done before)

its like a 100$ but that will sound cheap when you realize your tranny is dieing and thinking you could have helped preserve it a little by flushing and using synthetic..

go get it done.
