Trans Fluid change via Exchanger
I read in the past that some dealers where able to change most if not all the transfluid by hooking up an exchanger.
Anyone know of a good dealer to do this in Southern California, especially in the San Gabriel area. Hoping to change more than just a few quarts.
The car is doing well, haven't noticed any transmission issues. It's a 350 and has 62K miles. I feel like doing it for preventive measures as I plan to keep the car pass 120K and have heard from more than a few that after 80-100K miles, many have some signs of transmission issue. Hopefully by changing the fluid, I can extend the life of the transmission.
Thanks.

My friend's IS350 has about 125K and his shifting was starting to be rough. With that, I though I should change out my oil around 62K just for preventive measures. Was thinking about doing the exchanger route since draining the pan will only replace a couple of courts.
Called Longo Lexus in El Monte and they say they have an exchanger but only change out 3 quarts or so. That doesn't sound right with them having an "exchange." Has anyone done a transfluid change with an exchanger machine in the san gabriel area? Please point me to the right dealership that will do it properly.
