I did the dealership "power" flush and fill. $210 I think it was. Here's a recent thread, I posted in it a few times if you want to read up on some risks/ opinions of the various ways to replace the fluid.
I had it done at 144,000 miles. The service tech said they likely wouldn't have done the flush if I was past 150,000 miles. Scared me, but I did it anyways, and it shifts great, about the same as before but maybe firmed up a tiny bit.
No torque to wheels

thanks all for input. seems as controversial as an oil debate. The dealer told me 100k. I think I will drain and fill with the OE fluid.. and most likely drop the pan and new filter. I really dont want to drop the pan, but i figure it cant hurt. The only thing i dont like about that is breaking the factory seal and possibility of leaks with new gasket and of course the drippy mess with the pan off.
how many quarts do I need for the drain and fill?
BUT...just a thought???????
would leaving the partially used filter actually provide better filtration in catching finer particles?????????????

Dropping the pan and changing the filter is a most basic exercises. You would have to be a complete idiot to not get it to seal when putting it back on. Just wipe the sealing surfaces dry and install the gasket.
Spec says it holds 11.3 quarts. When doing a fluid change, I usually count on using 12 quarts, but have another gallon on hand.

Complete idiot....I resemble that remark!
So NO sealant is recommended...please confirm

The volume...man that seems like alot for just dropping the pan....is that dry volume or drain and fill (same as dropping pan)
thanks

[QUOTE=Whippersnapper02;3727862]I'd flush at 50. The filter is more of a screen from what I have heard but I have never swapped it myself.[/QUOTE
In related but how do I make a post. Can’t for the life of me figure it out. I’m on mobile

11.3 is total volume dry. Just dropping the pan and changing filter would be 2 to 3 quarts.
I never use any sealant on transmission pans.
I hand torqued with 3/8s ratchet, hand on rachet head, gets me about 16 to 20 ft lbs, which is good enough. Experience matters here, otherwise, use a torque wrench.

Now THAT, I woulda done earlier. At 60k you’re still gonna be fine if you do it now.
My personal schedule is 30k for rear diff and 45k for TC and front diff.
I don’t use the expensive Toyota fluids but it’s up to you.

im that idiot. I'm traumatized from my rav4 pan and filter drop. It was messy as hell and I thought I got the pan on correctly but weeks later I can still see a bit of weeping at the seams. The filter was a felpro gasket not a sealant of any sort.
Did you ever see debris in the filter itself? You've hit 300k so I'm curious what your findings were during transmission filter changes. Were the magnets covered in metal shavings each pan drop?
