I've recently heard that if you have over 100,000mi on your tranny it is better to keep the old fluid in there. the reason being is that (according to what i heard) it loosens things up in there and could cause slippage/ leakage. Does anyone have any experience with this subject? I find it hard to believe, and I really want our 89 190e to shift smoother. it's so abrupt of a shift now that when it switches gears you can actually hear the interior creak. and I dont want to cause premature wear of the differential as it is already kinda noisy.
thanks for your time,
darren
