Well thats sorta how the trans flush machine at my dads shop works, you just disconnect the trans cooler lines from the radiator, hook the inlet line up to the fresh fluid and the outlet line to the empty jug and start the car. The trans is a big pump and pumps out all the old and sucks in all the new.

It stoped banging as soon as I dumped the fluid and changed the filter
