Another Caveat....Most people never change Transmission Fluid...If you wait past 50k...DO NOT CHANGE IT!!! I have heard this but would like more info on it. My local lube shop said it won;t change the tranny fluid on any car over 100,000 miles, unless they have serviced it from the beginning. I thought that odd--what is the reason?

New transmission fluid has fresh detergents in it and will cause the sludge to break loose, often time clogging the valve body and other passages killing the transmission. It also will cause it to leak since often the sludge in a worn transmission is doing more sealing than the seals and gaskets.
