Transmission Flush And Service!
Hey everyone, i need to get my gear box flushed and serviced but i dont really know anyone who can do it, can anyone here recommend someone who is good and a good price? thanks Jordz
I'd be looking for a place that specialises in automatic transmissions, as they will have all the proper gear to actually fully flush the transmission...Originally Posted by Dinwoodie
For a full flush with new fluid and strainer would cost a little bit, probably around the $250 to $300 mark I'd imagine.
yer i got a quote last week for my vs and they said $175-$190
That's a pretty reasonable price... and that was for a full flush? Not just a fluid change (which is only changing the fluid in the pan, not the rest of the system)
Yeah i knew it was going to be pricey, i might just try and ring the tranny places and see whats said, apparently they can use up to 20l of gear box oil or something like that?
Yeah that's right. For a full flush, they actually have the car idling, and they hook the transmission cooling lines up to a machine, which continually flushes new fluid through the system, while the old dirty stuff is pumped out. I guess it would depend on how dirty your transmission fluid is as to how much new fluid is pumped through...
yer that was for a full system flush
I rang a place in frankston and they are doing a full flush and service for $210 so i've booked it in

pretty easy if you wanna just do a flush yourself just pull the hoses off the tranny cooler and put one hose into the new oil bottle and the other into your oil waste tray, just watch till you notice the new oil comes out the waste hose. Will be about 10litres i think for a full change.
