I'd like to thank you. It's people like you that buy into these bull**** services that help people like me make money. So again, thank you.

Oh, and BG machines suck *****. Wynns all the way.

Your funny. A little disturbed, but funny none the less.

Xemeth

Not sure how I'm disturbed, but OK.

And if you think being swindled into buying these "power steering flushes" and only using Mobil 1 sythentic ATF in your relatively stock street cars is funny, then more power to ya. Usually I'm mad when I waste a bunch of time and money on bull****.

I have to disagree with you. If it is PROPERLY flushed it will stay bright red for a long time. The only reason it turns brown right away is if there is still nasty fluid/ sludge builup left in the system that mixes in with the clean. Trans fluid will break down sludge which is why some people run a qt of it for a few miles before an oil change.

You can flush it easily and properly at home. I have done it. Fluid stayed red for 6,000 miles and the whining from the pump stopped completely, until the car got totalled.

There are a couple good write ups on here with pics.

I do agree there is no reason to pay a shop $100 or so to flush, or the readiator for that fact, It can be done ust as easily.

I didnt have any whine from my original pump, but my new pump whines, It gets aggravating but then i hear my exhaust and forget all about it I love my exhaust on my sixxer, I like my exhaust better than many gt's ive heard.

ATF will stay red for a while. PS fluid gets discolored very quickly. Even brand new vehicles with less than 10 miles on them have brownish colored fluid. If you constantly want clean looking PS fluid you'd have to flush it every time you drive the car.

Even newer ATF (Dexron VI for example) is designed to turn brown after so many thousand miles. The only way to tell if there's something going on inside the tranny that's burning the fluid or if it's worn out it by smell. The only time color is an indicator of anything is if it's completely black, and even then you'll usually smell it as you pull the dipstick out before you even get a good look at it.
