Default Longevity of AHC

I am looking at a 2013 with about 98k miles. One of my concerns is the AHC system. Does anyone have any experience with a high mileage LX like this one?
Thank you!!

I have a 2008 with 210k and it has always worked and still does.

Get the AHC serviced (fluid changed) every 30k miles...

I agree. Same with ATF. Simple and maybe $40-50 in Toyota AHC fluid.

Yes, it is 60K. As I've posted before, I tend to go by either time interval or mileage, whichever occurs first.

As to the OP, wife drives an '01 LX with around 190K. Zero issues with AHC, fluid changed every 30K, all 4 corners have pressure at the midpoint of Toyota's acceptable range.
