Flushing a tranny is not always a bad thing....letting a half @$$ service tech who does not know what he is doing flush a tranny can be bad news indeed.....I agree with lacboi, drop the pan and change the filter, and, nothing wrong with DEX VI. Just my $.02

Everyone that works on these trannys will tell you not to do a flush. You risk damaging a lot of the weak components in it. Just drop the pan, change the filter and refill with Dex VI.
