2001 V70 Transmission Thank you!

New to this forum. 142,000 miles on a V70 I recently purchased used. I performed a transmission flush using M1 3309 fluid and had great success thanks to this forum. My only word of advice... heed the warning that the fluid comes out of the cooler and not out of the line when disconnected from the top left side of the cooler. I made a small mess.... but manageable. It took 11.5 quarts of my 12 quart case to be satisfied with the clarity of the fluid coming out of the tranny. I now have a little more confidence. Now for my next problem......
