OK I learned something, I didn't realize so little fluid was extracted via a drain. But I am still not convinced.

I did a search and there are some for/against. And so you know my search wasn't skewed with "transmission flushes are big waste of time" here it is: Google Search: transmission flushing good idea

I guess I consider it akin to changing out power steering fluid; IE remove a bit at a time and gradually it will become clean.

Instead of flushing I'd just do an earlier drain.

BTW, is the flush done with respect to normal fluid flow of the trans? I would not want to have fluid flowing backwards as valves etc were not engineered for that use.
