Tranny maintenance question...

[DJay]

**** Post for FREE via your newsreader at post.usenet.com ****

Any preferences out there as far as who should do my Legacy 2.2L automatic
75K miles tranny maintenance?

Should I Do it myself - I'm not exactly a mechanical buffoon but I have
NEVER done
anything with the Tranny except check/adjust fluid levels. Is it extremely
complicated?

Take it to local Subaru dealer - had a bad experience with them trying to
recommend un-needed maintenance...but I would take it to them if there is a
reason that I shouldn't take it to a third party.

Take it to a third party Tranny place?

Thanks for any help you guys can give me!

First, try to find book for Subaru maintenance. I got mine for about 20$ at
Autozone. Second, check what steps should be taken for one or another
operation. Third, decide if you want to take responsibility for possible
damage and do it yourself, or just go to another mechanic.

Some stuff, like changing coolant, engine oil, differential oil is really
easy and you can mess up with almost nothing. Some stuff may require
patience, diligence, and special tools. But nothing impossible, especially
if you have second car you can drive if something does not go well...
