Question on changing transmission fluid...
Question. Which is better?
1. Typical pull off pan, drain, replace screen, reassemble, fill up again...
2. Have the service done that completely changes out all the fluid. They remove it all by suction and replace it...

What about the Valvoline MaxLife DEX/MERC ATF? It's synthetic and supposed to be good for just about everything...
