I read this morning of a new GM 4-speed automatic using a "new type of fluid" permitting "maintenance-free" operation under "normal driving conditions." Maybe this is old news to folks more in tune with the automotive world, but I've never heard of such.

Now transmissions are to be like sealed-top batteries; you just ignore 'em 'til they fail?

So, anybody know what makes these new automatics so special?
