Sounds dumb to flush and not change the tranny filter...like changing
oil without changing the filter...no way that's right

Do you suppose the bolts just loosened themselves and fell out? I guess
it
could happen. Hmmmm, maybe I'd better go check my tranny bolts.
Seriously
though, when they did the flush they didn't change the filter? That's
odd.
What's everyone else think? Should you or shouldn't you change the
filter
even with a system flush?

I just talked with them and I did the system flush. They said they
didn't do anything with the pan. Is it possible that they overpressured
the system and blew a gasket seal?

I do have 52k miles on the truck and after thinking about it, I don't
think that I have had the transmission pan dropped. Both services that
I've done were system flushes.
