think changing the trans oil is pretty overrated...and depending on what you choose plenty of folks still comment that they still get very notchy shifts. I never changed mine out..instead I just adjusted my shifting grip last year thanks to @Tcoat after I noticed my father was throwing gears on my 86 better than me lol and ever since my shifting feel has been perfect. There are way too many variations out there with how people shift.

Too many of you folks are trying the "preventative care" route but that rarely works for automobiles as there are very few things you can catch before they break...and even if you catch a significant problem ahead of time, what do you expect would happen? The solution is the same either way, the dealer would just replace the hardware.. There have been quite a few posters here who were able to convince their dealers to replace their trans for similar notchy shift "problems" only for the issue to come up on the replacement so go figure
