A little background: in February of 2021, I had the trans in my 2011 Camry drained and flushed and a new filter was installed. The trans was refilled with Toyota WS fluid. At the time, the car had about 80,000 miles on it and had recently been purchased by me.
Going forward, I'd like to keep the fluid in good condition and was thinking that every year or so, depending on miles driven, I'd do a drain and fill ... just opening the drain plug and refill the trans with an amount equal to what was drained, thereby replenishing the fluid. I think doing that will give me about 3 or 4 quarts of fresh fluid. When the 1 year anniversary of the flush comes around I'd estimate that there'd be between 5,000 - 6,000 miles on the fluid.
I'd be interested in any thoughts on this idea. Thanks!
