Many say it's life long fluid, that doesn't need changed.
Bollocks!
I had mine fully flushed and refilled, two years ago and again February this year.
First change, the fluid was very black and the transmission changed poorly.
After the refill, the gears changed superbly.
The second refill was just to make sure I had all the gunk out, after the first change.
