Hey Guys,
How many miles/km did you guys have before the maintenance minder code for the transmission fluid came on?
I'm at 55k km on my 2018 sedan touring and I haven't got the code yet. Just curious when I should expect it.

It will pop up at about 70-80k depending on your driving style.
I had mine replaced at 50k just because, but then again I don’t go more than 10k on oil changes either.
Its cheap insurance.

I changed mine super early, at like 25k miles. I remember the owners manual saying you can do that if you drive in harsh terrain and stuff, but I honestly just wanted to do it to see what it's like. It was pretty easy actually!

i would change it now personally, but it's your car, your decision

i have a 2018 sedan with 40KM, im not letting it go past 50KM without changing it, code or no code

i dont need a computer to make decisions for me, God gave me a brain to use
Many car drivers know nothing about mechanic, they need help from computer or ....friends.

Had mine replaced before the MM at 38,000 miles. MM service code came on at 53,000 miles. AFAIK the dealer does a flush service and charges up the A$$ for it. Most people are just doing a drain and fill depending on how "dirty" it looks and the smell. I did a drain and fill since my fluid looked and smelled new.
