Yeap, I am one of those that had the transmission flushed by the dealer and definitely noticed the improvement. (And I had less than 20K on my '03 when I had it done.) I don't know what ATF they used but for around 100 bucks, it's well worth it. As stated above, only half of the fluid can be changed if you just drain and refill. So in order to do it right, a machine is necessary.
