Does anyone know of a reputable Transmission shop in the western burbs of Chicago. I am looking to get the trans serviced/flushed on my truck. Thanks.

If you’re not having any problems with the way it is shifting then you will be fine. I recommend having a dealer do it WYNNS trans flushes flush everything including the cooler. Spent 22 years at a dealer before doing the education thing, I was also a transmission specialist (first gear in my Durango is slipping now!!) guess I know what I'll be doing during winter break :)

What that means is.... flush'n is bad..... just a fluid and filter change is good...

If you have ever looked inside a transmission they cant flush out a trans and what they do is relocate contaminents were they shouldn't be... If you have lots of contaminents in yer trans its time to rebuild... now thats my 4 shillings worth...

Yes a trans can be flushed out. The WYNNS system hooks up to your transmission lines and uses 16 quarts of fluid; the natural force and flow of your trans fluid pushes out the old fluid and replaces it with the new. Trans fluid breaks down just like engine oil and needs to be changed. Now yamadooed is right about contaminates if you are having any issues at all the new fluid will definitely cause issues, the fluid contains additives that clean the system and when there are issues the cleaner tends to break down the clutch packs causing major issues.
