Many mechanics believe, perhaps correctly, that if you wait too long (mileage, not color) you should not change the fluid because it could cause transmission failure prematurely; whereas if you had changed it regularly all along it would be ok.
Is it hard to change transmission fluid?
Because many transmission pans don’t have drain plugs, changing the fluid can be a messy proposition –the entire pan must be removed. But even on vehicles that do have drain plugs, the pan still must be removed to change the filter. Changing transmission fluid is one of those messy jobs that someone has to do.
Is it bad to put transmission fluid in your oil?

What happens if you put transmission fluid in your gas tank?

Does ATF clean fuel injectors?
