    13 miles!!!!

    So I bought a 2010 Outback. I got 13 miles(20.9km) and the damn radiator decided to fail internal. All the coolant ran into the transmission and the engine overheated. What damn luck!? I think I'll be able to save it. Going to flush it out until it doesn't look like strawberry nesquick.

    Flushed everything, pressure washed the engine and put some Seam Foam trans tune in. Over 50 miles and nothing really of note yet. Lets hope its good to go.

    So I changed all the fluids but the coolant(soon) after I got the car. Between 1750-2200RPM the car will shudder and would get TQ bind while turning at slow speeds. 300ish miles later after the transmission fluid exchange and adding Hot Shot's Shift Restore the TQ binding is gone and the shudder has become almost unnoticeable. Still have 700 miles to go before they recommend to change the fluid again but I'm sure it will clear up. I highly recommend anything from Hot Shot's to help with your cars. Its just annoying that the 5EAT in the outback does not have a filter in the transmission.

    At 1200 miles on Valvoline max life and Hot shot's shift restore. The stuttering between 1500-2000 is gone and the torque binding is gone. 100% worth it. Now I will be putting Amsoil transmission fluid in it for the future.
