Transmission service

[artsch]

Hi all, well the maintenance manual does not say I should change or flush the trans fluid in my 2008 EX35 2WD Journey. In places it does say to change the fluid there is a notation not to change the trans fluid in the EX35. Can someone tell me why we do not need to do this but my dealer says I should get a transflush at every 30K? This is from the manual:

Transmission Fluid – Automatic or
Manual, Differential Oil, Transfer Case Oil
Visually inspect for signs of leakage at
specified intervals. If towing a trailer, using
a camper or car–top carrier, or driving on
rough or muddy roads, replace the transmission
fluid/oil at every 30,000 miles or
24 months (except models with 7-speed
automatic transmission and the M35/EX35
with 5-speed automatic transmission).

Nissan is a big thumbs down on the flushing sales pitch. If you are going to keep your car for 100K+ then a drain and fill might be worth it. I will wait until 60K before I do mine.
