not sure about your AT change interval.

I'll have to take a peek in there tomorrow before I go to class then. See which one it is..

As for the AT, it says it's a sealed system that the fluid "never" needs to be changed. But come on... We know better then that...

I've heard of some people doing an AT fluid flush @ 50k. I'm thinking if I ever went boosted, I'd have to build the tranny anyways to keep up, so that would mandate a fluid change anyways.

I believe all 370z have the blue coolant. I would use that over the green because it's what came with the car and is longer lasting

would you expect the interval to be different between AT vs MT?

I wonder if when doing AT upgrades, does GTM just drain/save/refill fluids, or do they dump and put in new fluids?

I would imagine new fluids... If I got a new tranny, lord knows I wouldn't want used fluid going into it
