Never flush a high milage transmission. Just change the transmission fluid every 10,000 miles.

Do the oil change on the trans every 40-50l miles and this would not happen, I have a 5.3 v8 8 speed, since 0 miles I use it for towing my 8.5x20 enclosed trailer, always hauling more than 7-9k pounds and I had never had any problem, truck currently sitting on 300k miles mark, transmission shifts like new, so key factor is, DO THE MAINTENANCE ON THE TRANSMISSION!! The trans is not bad, is the stupid owners that think that this fluid is for life, yeah right think that and you will make gm multi millionaire buying their transmission for not changing the oil

I'll bet most of these owners never serviced the transmission. If they believed the dealer bs about lifetime fluid that's their fault too for being gullible.

All GM, Ford and Ram transmissions fail. A mechanic told me it depends on a lot of factors. Servicing the tranny around 70K helps. Not romping down on the accelerator also helps. Replacement of the temperature valve is a good idea. Stay away from oversized wheels. Lastly, NEVER throw it in reverse or drive without coming to a full stop.

I tuned my 6L80e transmission with a Hypertech tuner by increasing the line pressure and adjusting the shift points early in its life. That got rid of the hesitation and now it has 208,000 miles on it. I have consistently changed the transmission fluid and filter every 30 to 50,000 miles by dropping the pan every time.

I'm retired now after 40 years as a tech, and in the shop I worked at I'd say we replaced 50 GM transmissiions for one of every other make combined. Same ratio for engines, wheel bearings, A/C condensers, timing chains, etc, etc.........In other words, a trend had formed.

Dog gon heater cores shake until the pipes that go through the fire wall leak, done 4 of them in the last 36 years. Still though, a good little truck.

During Covid, some lady went viral for trying to turn that depressing situation around. Tired of seeing people, depressed and upset because of being locked inside she started putting rubber ducks on jeeps that she thought were really cool looking along with it, she would put a note that said you’ve been duked. I hope this brings a smile to your face. ( obviously, she probably collected rubber ducks, ) Because she went viral, it started a trend, and now owners will buy their own ducks as a symbol that they have a cool ride. There are also many people that still go around putting ducks and notes on Jeeps.

Quick question my brother. I have a 2006 Ford Taurus and I have problems passing smog. Took test and came out that it has a small leak EVAP system leak detected and I talked to a mechanic and from the start he wants $250 to diagnose my car not including the start of my car fixture. Any recommendations?

Yeah, most ppl don't upkeep regular maintenance on pretty much everything. They think they can drive something magically until it breaks down. Most ppl don't even know how to check their transmission fluid. It's not the vehicle most times but the operator that is at fault for shortened life spans of vehicles. Let's keep it real.
