This is great information!

So, spending $350 + to have the Jatco power-flushed at the dealer is basically a scam. In an earlier thread some of you advised against the power flush, but I've been putting off even a pan drain and fill, and feeling guilty as hell about it too.

I still might drain and fill at some point, but I think some are doing a power flush every 30K miles, or at least plan to. Not doing this can save them over $1000 every 100K miles.
