135K miles. Too late for first time transmission fluid change?

Hello Scotty;

2011 Toyota Rav4 Sport automatic 3.5 liter V6.

Still has original transmission fluid at 135,000 miles. No problem with shifting. Fluid is reddish brown...mostly brown. Is it safe to change fluid?

If not, how about swapping new for old, 1 quart at a time, to see if I notice any changes?

What about an oil "additive"?

Thanks!

John

If you want to change the fluid, just drain fri the bottom and measure it, then add the same amount of correct  fluid. Do not flush the transmission fluid in this car.
