You can definitely flush a sealed transmission. But you shouldn’t
The exact reason why I stoped going to Jiffy lube .
My friend got ripped off 2k from Midas smh
Our car takes synthetic oil and we always buy the exact same type of oil.
A tire plug is only to get you by until you can afford to purchase a new tire beside as you said “it takes away the speed rating”
Stay away from oil change places that have employees standing roadside with "no waiting" signs. They make an hourly rate, plus commissions for talking you into unnecessary flushes, parts, fluid top-offs or service- that is IF they even perform the work. The NYS Office of the Attorney General sued a major Buffalo-area oil change chain for using substandard oil that they branded as Valvoline. The State received fine money, but the customers, many who’d gone there for years, got nothing, other than potential engine damage.
Lol contact the manufacturer…they are apart of the scam . Owners manual is made by the scammers. All mechanics are scammers they only want money , most don’t even do the work they just charge
Two auto mechanics have been here 🤨
anyone else cant stop looking at her….. (o) (o)

Never ever ever sign anything or take your car back without all the monitors run. Some checks don’t get performed until they run to completion.
They hold my car for 51 days
My younger brother got ripped of at Mr tires ,
one tire of his new car got damaged, the guy at the tire store told him he needed to replace the whole set of 4 instead only one , so he did , the store kept his almost new 3 tires , he was played big time.
Also, if you go to a quick stop oil change place such as Jiffy Lube and if they recommend an engine or transmission flush, say no because some manufacturers such as Honda does not recommend it. Follow the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule. Plus any damage caused by one of those flushes could actually void the manufacturer’s warranty depending on how new the vehicle is.
