To change trans fluid or not to change
On the S60 I did change the fluid by using the suck some out - put some in and drive for a few days / weeks method. I did that several times. That cars meter shows several hundred thousand on it and the fluid change was somewhat --- a little little bit noticeable. There were no problems before the change and I did it as a just in case. Messy job draining a bit and refilling.
I have a 2007 V50 T5 AWD with 106,000 miles on it. Shifts fine but I still have 3/4 of a case of 3309 and was thinking of using the same method I used on our S60.
One time I test drove a V50 that had horrible shift flare and once you have that disease it is not going away. So my idea is to change the fluid as a precaution and prevention against any future problems such as shift flare.
So I am asking for a consensus -- change it or don't change it.
