I understand that the ESSO LT 71141 fluid is designed to be a never replace fluid for the life of the transmission. Is this really the case, come on really? I mean if I have the time and money, and intend on keeping the car well towards 200,000 miles, should I not just do a pan drop and replace the missing fluid?
It seems incredibly unlikely that a transmission would never need a fluid refill. Are we not limiting the potential life of the transmission by not replacing the fluid, or are the two life spans almost equal, e.g...The transmission will fail before the fluid wears out? Would I be doing more harm than good by replacing the transmission fluid? Is this lifetime fill option, really a safe bet?
