Arrow Has anybody got their transmission flush?

1989 Honda Accord LX

I was thinking about flushing my transmission and wanted to know if anybody got any positive feedback from doing that?

got my Fit trans fluid flushed, charged for a lot of fluid compared to just dumping the fluid out in a plan and changing the filter, lot less fluid but after 1 run the fluid still looked poor and smelled due to not doing a complete flush. Also did one on a e-150 van, complete flush took 12+ quarts of fluid but was clean , no smell, and lasted 20k and stayed pink.
My suggestion if you want to keep the trans in good shape and not fail as quickly as no change, do a complete flush.
Transmission shop told me that if everyone with an auto trans flushed their trans once a year, they would be out of a job..
and welcome to the forum
