Well, after a while of putting it off, I finally have some spare cash to change out the fluid.
According to some local shop's I've been calling, some of them do full flushes w/o cleaning the pan or changing the filter, some wouldn't even recommend a flush at all but instead cleaning the pan, new filter and new fluid, letting it run, then doing it again. What would be the best way to make sure my car is safe? Should I go, new filter new fluid and clean pan? Or should I go flush and hope that any gunk just goes away? All the prices seem to be around the same ($110 - $150~) so I'm just looking for the best option for my car. Any thoughts? -------------------- Brand new 6gc owner! (sort of 2011)

nice to see this thread, i was about to start one along this line of questions... but i do have a question not listed here yet.. are there, or is there anyone here that has had expirience with high(er) performance ATF? sorta like redline, motul, royal purple performance MT fluids? in the process of a motor swap (same motor type, just replacement) and the auto is going to get a minor overhaul. the car would see regular auto-x events and boost in the near future... recomendation? tips? any fluid types that you all have had some bad expierience with and should be avoided?
