So when DOES the transmission fluid need to be changed
So when DOES the transmission fluid need to be changed? I am the ower of a 2008 Yaris S hatchback (stick shift) with 61,000 mi on the clock. Trans fluid has never been changed.
Maintenance Guide says to inspect (not change) transmission fluid every 30,000 mi. As a matter of fact, at no point does the Maintenance Guide say that the transmission fluid HAS to be changed. All it refers to are the above-mentioned "inspections". A search on this board got mixed results: some say trans fluid need to be changed every 30,000 mi, some say every 40,000 mi, some say car needs no fluid changes until 100,000 mi. Sooo.... which one is it? Does anyone know? Dutchy999 |
