2001 with the 4.7. V8. Bought used in great shape with a lot of maintenance records but none for the transmission fluid change. I am the 3rd owner and according to the car fax, each owner had it approx 100,000 miles. I was unsure of wether to change the fluid or at least do a drain and fill. The fluid is starting to turn brown. I called my local toyota dealer and they said to NOT change it as it might grenade the transmission. I don't believe in lifetime fluids so this is getting me all twitchy. lol It starts and runs fine, I just want to keep it going for a long time. Currently has 216,000 miles on it. I bought it with 211,000. I guess I don't see why new fluid would cause my transmission to [censored] out. Any assistance here is greatly appreciated.
