How frequently does the automatic transmission fluid need to be changed? - Toyota Yaris Forums

With only 27,000 miles in it, I'd say do only one drain and fill not two. Rather wasteful imo. Also, performing the change every 30,000 miles is also overkill, again imo. Service schedule is every 100,000 kms.

You're probably right, WeeYari. It's the age of the fluid that would have me to do two, but I tend to 'over-maintain' my vehicles anyway. I'm sure one would be just fine.
