Should I change my transmission fluid?

Topic starter

I bought a 2014 Lexus IS350 f sport used with 196k miles on it for a steal.  Everything works like a dream and both owners took great care of it -- it looks like brand new.  It had its 90k service done at 105k miles.  Should I change the fluid at 200k and then every 60k miles or leave it and save up money to rebuild the transmission in a few years when it goes out as a "fun" side project?

Thank you!

It had its 90k service done at 105k miles

did that service include transmission fluid drain + refill, and filter change?

 

Scotty and I recommend doing it about every 60k for maximum transmission life.


@imperator I believe so. The first owner had it done at a pretty good Lexus dealership that I know today is very thorough, so it's a good-faith assumption on my part.


that dealer should have records
