(1) That this 6 spd is SEALED and he has to pump in the transmission fluid.

(2) That the transmission fluid looks dark when new.

(3) That there is no dipstick.

(4) That Toyota designed the transmission to be maintenance free for 100,000 miles. .....

Then I asked him why mine just made it to 500 miles ... lol ...

He had nooo response ... lol ...

I think Mercedes does this with their new transmissions too (sealed/super special fluid/no dipstick/maintenance free). My question is... what kind of maintenance is required at 100K? Is it simply a flush or is there [a lot] more involved?
