that's the way to buy it.


The problem is that GM sold Omega transmissions as maintenance free, so a car with 125k miles could easily have its original fluid. What's left of it. Changing it can do more harm than good, as you are removing some of the friction materials, or breaking up deposits and spreading them around the unit. Traditional fluid changes are, just like in engines, intended to reduce such problems. Oil changes at appropriate intervals are far more economical than halving the life of a four-figure mechanical part.

High Performance ATF, Power.   

Namely because we had gallons of it at work, never had any issues,.
