The 41te transaxle isn't the best thing anybody ever made so spending some more $$ on the whole change could make a big difference in the life of it. It's not a do-it-yourself job but well worth it.
Agreed.

That's the first thing I did after I bought mine in March... $150 on a full tranny flush.

Car has been great over the last 5500 miles.
