Oil Cooler Flushing & Flow Check: Notes
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 20 other vehicles, including the 2004 GMC Yukon XL, 2004 GMC Yukon, 2004 GMC Sierra, 2004 Chevrolet Tahoe, and 2004 Chevrolet Suburban. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
Flushing Solution (J-35944-22) is environmentally safe, yet powerful enough to cut through transmission fluid to dislodge any contaminants from the cooler. The safety precautions on the label regarding potential skin and eye irritations associated with prolonged exposure are typical precautions that apply to many similar cleaning solutions. It should be noted that according to General Motors, use of other non-approved fluids for cooler flushing can have an adverse reaction to the seals inside the transmission.
NOTE:
DO NOT use solutions that contain alcohol or glycol. Use of solutions that contain alcohol or glycol may damage flushing equipment, oil cooler components and/or transmission components.
