Another thanks to the OP for this very helpful thread. I just passed 100,000 miles on my '07 and even though the dealer said that the transmission oil didn't need to be changed, I went ahead and bought some MT-90 from amazon.com and changed it today in addition to the coolant. Many thanks for this forum.
