i understand that they claim that it's lifetime fluid, But the acidity will always change and should be considered. The coolant in my wife's 4runner was never changed and at 110k the trans fluid and the coolant decided to make a strawberry milkshake. I replaced the radiator and ran about 20 qts of trans fluid thru the trans to get it acceptable to take to the dealer.

so after dealing with that, i flush each of the vehicles at regular intervals.
