Had a radiator failure on my 1995 940, coolant and ATF fluid mixing to make a frothy hot chocolate looking mess. Caught it early, swapped radiator from a u-pull-it and flushed the coolant and radiator according to FAQ.

After 16 quarts of ATF, I still see a slight cloudiness in the fluid.

I figure I got at least 95% (probably more like 99%) of the coolant out of the ATF loop. Wondering if anyone out there had similar issue and opinion if I need to do another flush. Also, if anyone had a transmission failure afterward.

Transmission shifts normally and this 940 does less than 100 miles a week.
