Match the search results: When doing a transmission fluid flush, the concept is to get all of the old fluid out at once and simply replace it with new fluid. With a drain and fill, you are only removing about half of the fluid from the transmission via the drain bolt, replacing it, and then adding the same amount of new fluid that came out. Then, drive the car for a day or two, drain the fluid again, and replace with new fluid. The idea here is that you're weening the car off the old fluid. A drain and fill style service will be initially expensive if you decide to do all your changes in succession over a week as you will need to buy more ATF than the car actually takes. ...

Match the search results: Vehicles' vital fluids normally perform two important functions: lubricating and cleaning. As the fluid circulates through the parts, it gathers the dirt and metal shavings that can accumulate over time. If you're lucky, this debris will settle on the bottom of the pan or housing and not circulate through the system. That’s why some auto shops use machines that perform a transmission fluid flush, ensuring that more of this debris is removed before any new transmission fluid is poured into the vehicle. ...

Match the search results: The first thing you should do before you change any fluid in your car is to check the current level of the old fluid.  This is the best way to check for any leaks, even slow leaks.  On most vehicles with automatic transmissions, checking the fluid level is just like checking your oil level.  There should be a dipstick, usually to the rear of your engine bay that is either a yellow, black or red handle that says “trans” or otherwise indicates it’s for your transmission.  If you pull that dipstick out you’ll notice it has two level markings on it, a “hot” and a “cold” level.  Since there are no markings in between, it is best to have your transmission either hot or cold.  Your transmission would be considered cold if your car has been parked for over 2 hours, and it would be hot if you’ve driven for more than 30 minutes.  The other trick to checking your transmission fluid level is to make sure your vehicle is level, and in park with the engine running. ...
