Filled for life is great for trans shops and dealerships. Fluid is cheaper than a trans. At the very least drain the fluid and refill it. I’m sure the fluid is pricey, but again it’s better than getting stranded because you didn’t change the fluid!
Except there is no place to put new fluid in!
Previous next door neighbor had a new Toyota or Nissan truck. Drained the transmission fluid on his "usual maintenance interval." Went to fill it. No dipstick! Crawled all over the transmission. No fill plug anywhere on it! Sealed from the factory.
Suffice it to say, he instantly voided the warranty. Had it hauled to the dealer. They could not put fluid in it. As I recall he had to pay for a new transmission to be installed. All his fault for not following directions.
