You're just a pot calling the kettle black. Do you really care that much what I think? I say the fluid caused the failure. I spent almost $3k to call the failure whatever I want and couldn't care less what you think.
Funny how easy it is for people like you to spend my money. How was this supposed to happen? I have someone tear the trans down and be without a vehicle even longer to find the cause and be no farther ahead so I can vindicate the MaxJunk fan boys on BITOG? I think not.
If you like that junk, use it, I'm not. If you don't like what I have to say no one is forcing you to read my posts. Just press that button that reads, "MaxJunk fan boys ignore button" and your life will return to normal.

For the record, I did not start this, nor do I start posts just to bash Valvoline. I was always more than polite about my objection to MaxLife but a few members DEMANDED (LOL!) that I elaborate, so I did and here we are. If you closely read the original post that is linked in this thread, you can even spot who a couple of them are.

You are far from polite, arrogant and condescending is more like it. You also say there is no way it was user error. Considering your arrogance can we believe that? Is it possible you did do something wrong? I think so, [censored] there is always a possibility I could screw anything up however minute it may be.
You actually still hide a lot because you never actually opened the case to see if it was fluid failure. It could have been slug of clutch material dislodged by the new fluid that clogged an orifice or accumulator. Frankly you have no idea why it failed but you assume the new fluid was the cause.
You are treating this as if someone who just changed from conventional oil to synthetic but then lost compression on a cylinder(s). They proceed to blame the oil as if it had anything to do with it. It is pure and simply a mechanical failure as there is no way the right fluid could do that.
You used the right fluid and it still broke, mechanical failure pure & simple. You may not want to hear it but I can't stand it when someone says something so false about a product with really nothing to substantiate it.
