NO reason changing fluid will damage a tranny but it may expose a problem. gonna ask my tranny guy why this is
IMHO, it's the procedure that most have used to push out all fluid by running through the gears with no fluid. Just a really bad idea in my book. I like your method much better with using compressed air & letting it drip for a few days.
