Just change your fluid and filter. No questions asked, I think this is a NO-BRAINER. Lifefime fluid=Lifetime of pain. I don't think any fluid is lifetime especially when used in a device where gears are continuously grinding at each other and clutch materials are rubbing and so forth..Cost me around $100 including filter and I think 6 or 9 quarts of this stuff....Tranny shifts smooth as butter now!
