Transmission problems?
Have you experienced any problems?
94 n/a @ 104K, it seems to shudder in first gear right before shifting and proceeds to go in quite hard into 2nd but the rest of it is still very smooth as well as 2-3 and 3-OD. There are minor shudders in the car at lower RPMS but I think it is caused by other factors.

The reason I got my bonne for free was because the differential was shattered out of the end of the tranny and took the casing with it. That'* what happens when you do too many one wheel wonder burn outs,
. It probably will, but if it does.. as long as my mom'* boyfriend finds me first. He likes me, and will protect me

"Never had any problems - works good."
Probably 'cause it'* an OLDSMOBILE!
But all seriousness aside. I've been changing the xmission oil and filter every year for the past 4 years that I've owned this car. It'* cheap insurance and it'* one less thing that I worry about. Oh, and I don't do the "Flush" thing, although it'* is probably arguably better. I just do the "drop the pan" routine.

If the fluid is a nice, sexy red, dropping the pan is all you need. But if it isn't, or you didn't do the last flush [or don't remember], doing a full flush is recommended, IMO.
