My dealership story in Ottawa

Why are you changing you transmission fluid? It's maintenance free.

for the sample reason that after 45 000 kms and track time , the transmission does not shift has it use to .

the second reason is an auto transmission can gets very hot while on the track.

third , a brand new 7at cost around 7500$+tx

forth; when i installed an transmission oil cooler , i lost a certain amount of oil and i might not have put back enough or too much.

its not like the 6mt where you have a screw on the side and you fill in .

Huh? OK, you go ahead and leave it there for the "life" of your car. I'll bet the transmission "life" will be shorter.

Maintenance-free.....

It's only maintenance free to 100,000km and only then if you drive like an old lady. If you read the fine print they recommend a complete flush (drain, fill, drain, fill) at much shorter intervals depending on how you drive.
