I was planning on doing the tranny cocktail, but someone in the car repair business told me that I should not. He told me that since the fluid has probably never been changed that changing it now (72,000mi) may cause the gears to "slip" or damage or something like that. Will damage or "slippage" occur if I still decide to change the fluid?

Thanks




That person in the car business is referring to Automatic transmissions where they have bands in them. If you don't properly maintain an auto tranny, then it's best to let the fluid sludge up and keep it in there till it blows.
