    Default transmition fluid change

    How often should you change the transmition fluid? Anyone have a how too on this? Also how about the Vdrive fluid?

    I change the trans fluid every season. You can pump the oil out with a pump like the link below. I make sure I measure what I remove so I do not overfill. You should be able to pump out 2 quarts. Then refill. The v drive is the same process. Most of the Moomba V drives take 1 quart of 30 weight oil.

    Here is a good write-up that's stickied in the How-To section: https://forum.moomba.com/showthread.php?t=10977

    I do both the trans and vdrive every year: cheap and easy.

    my 07 manual says every season but I haven't changed mine yet. Probably this fall?
