Transmission flush question
Hey y'all I haven't had any trouble with my transmission, but I noticed that it was downshifting a little hard now and then so I had a friend of my wife, who is a mechanic, perform a transmission flush. He told me it would be better to buy the fluid at a dealership so luckily I have a friend who works in the parts department at a dealer and he told me it would take 16 quarts to flush and refill the transmission. Well when I got my truck back I was informed by the mechanic that I purchased too much tranny fluid and he only used 8 qts. Could one of you let me know what I should do, because if it takes 12 quarts to fill it up and 16 to do the whole job, then I feel like I got ripped off because I didn't get the extra 2 gallons back. They run about $34 each. Thanks for the help.

I agree. Why can't you return the unused quarts? Or why didn't your mechanic friend give them back to you?
