Morning Gerry and Don!
Been reading some maintenance stuff for Blue, thinking about a trans fluid flush!

Its always good to replace the tranny fluid Steve, a flush is usually over board but if you drop the pan & replace the filter & fluid you should be good.......

The fluid in there now is clean so if you drop the pan, replace the filter, the gasket should be re-usable, then refill the fluid you will be fine.....
There should be a magnet in the pan, just grab it with a rag & wipe it clean then put it back after you've cleaned out the pan......
Its up to you if you wanna try and change more fluid & do that flush...

It is pretty clean, just gonna be hitting 80k sometime this winter, and thought it was about time for some fresh fluid!
