Jon. with all due respect, a transmission flush is simply a big ripoff and an invitation to transmission failure.
First, there is NO WAY to flush out the residual oil in the drums, servoes, and hidden cavities in the transmission.
Second, what are they using to "flush" the transmission with?? Potentially harmful solvent? Incompatible oil? Or just a generic "one size fits all" oil?
Third, since there are no less than 8 different oils used in today's transmissions, does the shop with the flushing machine actually use the CORRECT oil for the transmission being serviced?? The wrong oil can drastically shorten the life of a transmission.
I have been rebuilding and repairing automatic transmissions for over 40 years. My experience covers from the old DynaFlow, HydraMatic, and TorqueFlite transmisisons up to the modern electronic units. CVTs excluded.

Once you have rebuilt a few, you soon see that there are some things that you take apart just to clean out the accumulated contamination that could someday come back to bite you.

The most memorable event that took place was a trip up the steepest incline on the farm pulling an old New-Idea baler with a pony-motor for power and a haywagon. I had just talked my Dad into buying an old John Deere B with 6-speeds ahead and I was real proud of it, except it was a little smaller than the Case tractor that we normally
