Old fluid can get trapped in the torque convertor 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Volvo Guy on  Thu Sep 11 18:38 CST 2003 [RELATED]

What I do when doing a driveway trans flush is set the parking brake REALLY tight and move throught the gears. You might want to leave it in drive for a while while flushing (with the E-brake on, of course). This circulates fluid thru the torque convertor and gives you a much more complete flush, resulting in your fluid being a lot pinker.
