I wouldn't do that if this car has a transmission intercooler in its Radiator. Metal shavings have been known to lodge in that radiator for some time and then break lose later to re-enter the Tranny and cut up seals and things like that.

If you do chose to go that far I would insist (or better yet provide) an inline filter to the return line from the (intercooler) radiator to the transmission to catch that. Magnafine makes a nice little inline filter for this, has a bypass for if it gets clogged and has a nice Magnet in it.
