Not that im an expert on this, my trans back in November locked it self up and had to be replaced. I had the trans flushed in July of that year, and then I exchanged the fluid in Sept myself (lazily through the dipstick), It was really dirty again. I probably had a doomed trans that had been abused by its previous owner, but ive heard some bad things about the flush. It may be rough on compromised components and speed their failure.
I think a lot of people drain, drive and refill it a few times to get all the old stuff out. I will certainly be going that direction, and not a flush again!!
Do a site search about the flush, there is a lot of info on here.
