If I brought all of them, I wouldn't have room for the flushing kit

Re: How to: DIY auto-box mega-flush
I agree, and exactly what I'm doing Ian (Bods), Gordon did it and a service at 65k, but I had a strange noise afterwards. So at 75k I devised this method and flushed thinking it would cure it. It didn't, a genuine fuel filter did though....
So now at 108k, and I had shudders.
Farm is near Nailsworth, we've got it in the diary to meet up

Re: How to: DIY auto-box mega-flush
I am thinking of this too, however I just worked out we have spent over £3k in the last 3 months on the cars for tyres, repairs & servicing etc . That's even with a £800 warranty contribution
