Transmission oil change due to time?
I'm buying an Alfa with a C7 and an Allison 3000. The tranny had an oil change 4 years and 25k miles ago. Do you change the trans fluid due to time?

FWIW, I would change the transmission fluid. Then you know when it was changed, the type of fluid used and have a baseline for future maintenance.
I have a great maintenance log, the RV belonged to an aircraft mechanic. It calls for fluid change every 150K miles or 4 years, but I have never heard of changing it due to age. He changed it at 53K 3 1/2 years ago, now it has 80K miles. If I follow the time, I would have to change it in April, but with less than 30K miles when it could go to $150K
