[QUOTE="IgnoreMe, post: 3579379, member: 551352"] its the same **** if youve never done a tranny flush in an automatic. there are so many detergents in new tranny fluid that doing a tranny flush on a car thats never had one before, is going to result in leaks galore. it doesnt create the leak, but it takes away the filth that was gunking up the leak. i started using synthetics on my car with 150k miles on it. no leaks so its all good. synthetics are the way to go. btw, dont believe anyone that tells you once you go to synthetic you cant go back..because you can. and one of the main important parts about running synthetic oil, especially if your trying to make it last the 10k miles they claim is GOOD filters. do a nice oil change and use a nice big ass filter (usually mobile 1 makes the bigger filters) and run the car for 5k miles. then switch in another filter for the next 5k. you will loose some oil from the filter so top it off with some more synthetic oil and your good to go. most people neglect to tell you that even though the oil is 100% fine, the filter still needs to be able to do its job. and if its gunked up with ****, its obviously not working properly.
