Re: Transmission flush
In Newport News, there is a shop where Gary's Custom used to be. I can't remember the name, but they are CHEAP! I took one of my cars up there for a special they had advertised for like 29.99 for a drain and fill. Not a bad deal because they will also check other components and didn't screw me over.
If you get a drain and fill, remember that it still leaves atleast 10-20% of the old fluid in the reservoir, and it would be recommended to get it done again to get the whole system. Flushes can be bad for your tranny if it is older, because they will impose a lot of pressure on the system and sometimes this will dislodge parts that were keeping an older tranny from leaking or slipping.
