I have been told by the BG rep it is safe to do their trans flush on my 12 LR4. It has 112k, and having worked for BMW for 20 years believe the "lifetime fluid change" theory on ZF transmissions to be garbage. Lifetime to what? A hampster? Anyway, my local JLR dlr says the proper way to do it is r&r pan, replace filter, reseal mechatronics, etc, all for 1800.00! I am not having any problems, just being proactive with service. Called another JLR dealer 100 miles away, they said drain and fill is fine, would cost about 400.00
Wondering what to do and if BG flush will actually cause problems or it's ok. The flush will get the fluid out of the torque converter vs. a drain and fill. I don't want to do this myself. Advise?
