I'm going to just do it this way and then the last time I do it I will drop the pan and clean or change the screen and clean the whole pan and put a new gasket while I was under there I noticed there was a lot of dirt and grime build up on the pan I'm going to be getting under there and...

So I figured out my course of action with my trans I'm going to do three just drain and fills with valvoline max life atf full synthetic and once I'm done doing that I will then do three more with but instead will be using amsoil atf. My intention is to try and get as much of the old fluid out...

As I had expected I need at least 2 motor mounts and will probably do all of them including the trans mount is there a good type of motor mount that anyone can recommend

Going to the dealership is your best bet they shouldn't charge you to tell you what part that is

Okay Scott I've been looking for fluid comparing it to amsoil and honestly none of them have the specs I'm happy with and I've found a couple of corolla owners that have said they switched to amsoil at and the difference was substantial. I'm going to have to go with it please send me the price...

You guys are focusing on leaks only if I put amsoil in and there ends up being debris of some sort and the amsoil unclogs it due to it superior performance and it clogs the screen were does that leave me I have had a transmission go on me with great looking fluid the thing is if you keep good...

Scott that is what I said the problem can be that the amsoil is to good and I don't want to take a chance having that happen. The trans has no codes for anything I'm sure that a high quality atf with right certs will do fine It is not a race car don't always have to protect like it is I'm...

I'm not sending my fluid to a lab and pay to test it when I know it should be changed its 60k plus old so why waste money when you know the answer. The trans tech was not saying that if I used it that would leak he is saying that older cars have a tendency to leak and the fluid cleans it way to...

Also Scott he was right when he said kinda old the fluid was last changed on 7/6/2009 but does not tell what kind of fluid just tells me how many miles and date he did not know this at all. Like in every other trade there are things the older guys know about that we don't.

And goes what you used that a lot earlier on in the life of that car than me this car was 17 before i t came to me and no Scott this guy has actually been in the business for 52 years and owned the shop for most of it he's 73 not some young guy and has more experience with transmissions than you...

I don't believe a lab test will always be 100% just because it may work on some does not mean all.

Scott sometimes the lab is not everything thing real life changes things an old trans that starts using new full of detergents which is mostly what trans fluid is am soil has way to many cleaning agents and it causes stuff to come loose clog the filter and impede flow and so you know Scott my...

So heeding the advice of my mechanic I went to the most reputable trans shop in town to have it fully checked and see if fluid and filter change would be good. So first things first he pops the hood checks the fluid and says not bad kinda old but good plugs in the computer and zero codes...

Normal just after a long highway trip check your oil because at those rpms oil gets eaten

Scott has super low prices believe me

I know in the 97 there is on 1.8 cause mime is cold at idle

That engine is toast

No the spectre is in there now I'm waiting to get one from Scott and I checked it all glued in

Not to long but you get the point

Not always my car vibrates a little when I have the ac on but all motor mounts are good. To check them pop the hood and look at the motor and rev it to about 3k and if it stays pretty still and doesn't jump they are fine
