How often do you actually adjust your bands?
I was thinking about doing a pan drop and filter change on my transmission just as good preventative maintenance. I always adjust transmission bands when I pull a pan but I haven't taken the pan off of an A518. Should I adjust them or leave them be?

I'm not sure why I would even adjust them at the moment if I don't think it needs adjustment. Even the fluid looks clean regardless that they say ATF 4 color doesn't indicate condition - I call bull on that because a wearing transmission thats out of adjustment eats through friction material faster and has darker color fluid.

(518 trans) front band adjustment. Loosen band adjusting screw locknut. Tighten band adjusting screw 72 IN lbs. If extension is used tighten to 47- 50 IN lbs. Then back off adjusting screw 2-1/2 turned. Hold adjuster screw in position. Then tighten lock nut 30ft lbs.
Same for rear only back off adjusting 2 turns. and tighten locknut to 25ft lbs. factory specs. for you opinionated people. I loosen mine 3 turns front band and 2-1/2 rear seems to shift better.
