Trans flush and new filter.
Do you flush first or do you do the filter first?

If you didnt know, those elements are part of two different services.

I wanted to get my filter changed when I got my flush, but the dealer was going to charge me for both a flush and a filter change (which includes dropping the pan). So, I would imagine that you would drop the pan first, releasing a lot of the fluid. Change the filter, then do the flush.

A pan drop only nets about 5 to 6 quarts....there's 13.9 in the automatic transmission used in our trucks.
