No but I wouldn't do that. Take it to a shop that will flush it. I recommend BG Products shop. http://www.bgfindashop.com

The valve body should NEVER need cleaning out.

Change the ATF.

Exchange the fluid yourself using the cooler line method. Avoid shops that use any type of solvent or cleaning solution.
