      Hi everyone, I’ve problem with my chevy in last week i found my coolant reservoir filled with creamy pink fluid after inspection its seems to be there is a failure in my gearbox coolant that leads to mix gear fluid with coolant water , I’ve made some fixes by replacing the engine radiator and flush gearbox fluid (only on the pan )but the gearbox still not functioning well, shall i replace the gearbox or do full gear fluid flush? any help !

        IMHO,
        I would try a complete fluid flush first.
        If it works all well and good, plus you’ll save the cost and labor of a major replacement.
        Might look at installing a external cooler and by pass the radiator all together.

          thanks Richard , unfortunately i can’t replace the gear filter cause it unaccessable without teardown the gearbox, my transmission type gm(6t75) and what about the valve controller! is the flush enough to clean it

            Can’t say for certain..
            Though there are a growing amount of cases where doing a complete fluid flush (3 gallons or more) have worked on vehicles that have had the strawberry milkshake.
