A transmission flush involves using a machine to pump out old fluid through the cooler lines while simultaneously adding new fluid. This process doesn't include changing the transmission filter. In contrast, a transmission fluid change requires removing the transmission pan, installing a new filter and pan gasket, and adding the appropriate type of transmission fluid for your specific vehicle. It's crucial to use the correct fluid type, as there are many variations based on vehicle year, make, and model. For expert assistance with either service, please contact A-J & H Transmission.

When inspecting your transmission fluid, pay attention to four key aspects: the fluid level, color (which should be a bright, clear red), consistency (thin and free of contaminants), and odor (typically odorless; a burnt smell may indicate a problem). It's important to note that some vehicles require specialized tools for checking the fluid. If you're unsure or need assistance, don't hesitate to reach out to A-J & H Transmission for guidance or a professional inspection.
