ejlain Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 Hi, just bought a 1995 Subaru Legacy L sedan (auto) with 155k miles. Runs like a champ and body's in great condition. Had some minor tune-up stuff done to it so far - put in a new battery, new air filter, had the oil changed. The only thing i haven't done is have the transmission fluid changed. Any thoughts on this? A local shop has a deal on a trans. fluid change w/ filter. Do I want to do this or should i just add fluid? I noticed when i park on an incline, it is tough to shift into a gear. Is this an indication of low transmission fluid? Any help is appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScoobySchmitty Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 With that many miles, it might be a good idea to change the trans fluid and replace the filter. No knowing when the last fluid/filter change occured. I'm not sure how good most lube places are with cars, I usually do the maintenance work myself (saves on fingerpointing), but if it is reputable, give it a shot. Personally I would go to a dealer, but they turn out to be more expensive for a simple fix up. Just my $.02 Good Luck and enjoy your new ride!
