How often should transmission fluid be changed? I bought my Outlander in July 2020, and it has been four years with only 10,000 kilometers driven. However, the dealership says it's time to change it due to the time elapsed, or else the warranty won't cover transmission issues. Has anyone here changed their transmission fluid? Did you use the mechanical circulation method or the gravity method? With just 10,000 kilometers, do I need to remove the oil pan for cleaning before changing?

The 2021 car's maintenance manual now recommends changing the transmission oil every two years! [I need a moment] [I need a moment]

I remember it's supposed to be changed at 80,000 km. The car was registered in September 2020 and has run 56,000 km. I haven't changed the transmission oil and brake fluid yet, just checked the oil level and added water to the tank when necessary. After the first engine oil change, I replace it every 10,000 to 13,000 km (using high-quality oil). The fuel consumption of this car is a bit higher than a regular sedan but normal compared to other SUVs in the same class. There's nothing else to worry about. It's built to last. Just treat it as a regular means of transportation for the family and not like you're catering to a demanding lord.

At the same time, for the same model, change every 4 years or 40,000 km, otherwise, the transmission will be out of warranty. Even if not used, the oil will continue to oxidize, and this deterioration is irreversible. For the original CVT oil, gravity change is sufficient.
