[QUOTE="DPI, post: 2037552, member: 793"] Brown fluid indicates either dirty or burnt or both. If the tranny has that many miles and the fluid has never been changed, you do not want to flush it, that will dislodge any contaminates and it will kill your tranny for sure. The best thing to do is drain the fluid, r&r your filter and put fresh fluid in it. If there is a drain plug on the transmission pan, I would suggest drain the fluid in the pan and replacing it with each oil change. Usually the pan only holds about three quarts, so it's inexpensive insurance to keep at least refreshing the fluid three quarts at a time. [/QUOTE]
