    Did mine not too long ago, noticably softer shifts after. Are you having the dealer do a full flush on the machine?

    You bet! I don't know when it was done last so I figured I should do it right the "first" time. Just rolled 180,000 km and it's scheduled for 184,000 km, get it done in time for my move to vancouver island.

    Just broke 70k, but I figured with the age and the fact that I tow my loaded quad trailer :D regularly that it couldn’t hurt.

    Thanks guys... I actually have a bunch of mods I bought but haven't had time to install. Firestone RideRites with Daystar Cradles, a bunch of BAMF stuff (IFS skids which require grinding of other skids, and behind the grille light bar with 2 BlitzPro 21s's and a bunch of other lights and goodies)

    I work in the car biz and after 50-60+ hour weeks and 3 hours commuting per day, I am beat as all get out, and last thing you wanna do is work on cars. Once I get my GrilleCraft the rest of the mods will flow, but it just feels good to pay it off. One less thing to worry about in crazy ass life... mods mods mods :)
