    That's common practice and a standard yes.

    Automatic transmission fluid and filter change

    What understanding of Google am I lacking? I thought about my replies but what comes next because I question things will be interesting based on the statements you have made towards me. Cheers :cheers:

    Automatic transmission fluid and filter change

    Google it for yourselves. You'll see the conflicting information both for and against on other transmissions. My question was direct at who has first hand experience changing this 8hp70 transmission fluid with high miles and having adverse effects. So far the answers are comical at best with...

    Automatic transmission fluid and filter change

    I asked a question. I made valid points to my question. Don't change my words because you're an admin. I didn't use naive in any reference towards him.

    Automatic transmission fluid and filter change

    To this statement that changed to flushing. From a mechanical engineer who referenced the general Google search as his site reference and not an academic site

    Automatic transmission fluid and filter change

    Back to the original question from the guy who has not stated an engineering degree.

    Automatic transmission fluid and filter change

    First of all this conversation changed from changing the fluid and filter over 150k to flushing. I just asked the question earlier on why they thought changing fluid and filter after 150k caused more damage. No one cares about flushing. I stick to my answer about Google. I agree with you guys...

    Automatic transmission fluid and filter change

    Had you led with that answer I might have believed you. But without speaking from your own experience which you have admitted you're not keep it moving. Thanks for the reply.

    Automatic transmission fluid and filter change

    Meaning you performed the flushing and that was the result. 1st hand experience is what I'm referring to.

    Automatic transmission fluid and filter change

    I'm not trying to be a **** here but googling anything these days has so much inaccurate information that cannot be trusted. I thought you were actually speaking from experience. Thanks for the reply.

    What is your theory on why changing fluid causes issues?

    Coolant Temp at 240F while at hwy speeds

    Easy way to tell if the thermostat failed. Top hose will be hot. Bottom hose will be cold. Almost lost my engine at 135,000 to the tstat similar to the symptoms you have described. What is odd is you say you checked all the right things that need to be looked at. I would think its...

    Performance upgrades on 2017 Laramie 1500 rwd

    I started with the custom tuner to begin. I ended with Diablo tuner although HP tuners is just as good. Which is better is usually determined by who is tuning the vehicle. The problem is the cost. Price is double for 2015 and newer for the unlocked PCM. From there Long tube headers of your...

    Check your intake manifold bolts

    I did the tests on my own vehicle. I gained that much back. I don't have my results anywhere handy. Giving you numbers from my experience with this. And no you won't stop running you'll be chasing P219 codes forever till you figure out these bolts are tied to the problem. That and you'll...

    AlphaOBD and DTE correction for 51 gal Tank Mod

    At first I thought the voltage would have to be re-scaled however it appears as long as the sensor can read below .61 then additional values need to be input for 40+ gallons. If that is not possible then the fuel level sensor would have to be rescaled.

    Check your intake manifold bolts

    The squish is not the intake manifold but the $12 per runner OEM gasket that is sealing the IM to the cylinder head. That is what would be squishing out. You can doubt the 30hp because again it's a case by case basis but numbers don't lie :headbang:

    Check your intake manifold bolts

    For those of us with 100,000 miles or more consider replacing the bolts. It is known that bolt threads stretch. So instead of doing this job repeatedly get new bolts, proper temp loctite, torqued in sequence and enjoy. You might get as much 30hp back depending on how bad your situation is...

    Haven't seen any of those either now that you mention it

    AlphaOBD and DTE correction for 51 gal Tank Mod

    If you change the tank capacity to what it actually is the fuel level will drop. It's a function of the calculations. How far are you guys driving the trucks after making the change? Realize we own adaptive computerized vehicles. The truck has to have time to learn the changes given just like...
