This is my opinion, people are going to disagree but I believe there is maintaing a car properly and also overly maintaining the car to the point where you're doing more harm than good or just wasting your time.



Hi V6,

I have been following your many posts and I tend to put a lot of weight in your opinions because I think you are very knowledgable. The manual does not recommend this be changed until 30k. The dealer says every 20k.

What do you think? When to change ATF first time and when subsequently?
