Agree on the sealed trans. It's a crock of ...... but I got an 06 Charger SRT with no dipstick. It may or may not be on its original fluid/filter. Likely it's not been changed yet. 103kmi. No leaks, no issues, fluid is clean and red.
Fwiw it's got a 100kmi service interval and against my better judgement I've gone the full interval. But time to change fluid and filter for sure.
Auto trans are getting much better but it's still a dumb idea. Wouldn't keep me from buying the vehicle I wanted though. It's just an inconvenience to figure out how to check the fluid. Not good when on the road and maybe develop a small leak like mentioned above.
I think that is wrong...I had a 2007 Magnum, and I recall the ATF was supposed to be changed at either 50K or 60K.
