I just hit 30K miles a few weeks ago and the transmission fluid was still more amber colored than black. It probably didn't
need to be changed but it was more that I wanted to switch it to synthetic. The only note I have is buy more than 3 qts as I would have liked for it to overflow even though I know the level is fine after sticking my pinky finger in the fill hole to check. Driving with the new fluid is noticeably smoother but not significantly so. The differential fluid was dirty with lots of metal bits on the magnetic drain plug from the clutch wear - I will likely replace it again at 60K
This is the pump I got, but it was <$5 when I purchased it before Xmas
Lubrimatic Fluid Quart Pump 4cc : Amazon.com : Automotive The screw top didn't fit the Redline bottles, but it wasn't a problem. I left it at my buddy's house since he'll probably make more use out of it. If I have to, I will just buy a new one 30K miles from now
