I wanted to share my experience. I bought a used 2012 optima last week with 40K miles. I have read that the transmission fluid is 100K fluid but others including my dealership recommends doing the change at 30K miles. This weekend i drained the fluid and filled up with proper fluid. The fluid that came out looked like used motor oil. It was medium brown, not nice and pink as i expected. No way would i leave that in there 100K miles.
I also own a 2013 that i bought new. Im going to change its fluid this weekend coming up. It has 37K miles on it now. Ill keep you posted as to what that looks like.
