    Hello, i have an '06, the toyota owners site (which allows us all to check for the things the dealer has done to our cars using the VIN code) doesn't display whether the transmission fluid has been changed or not, the car has 85k miles, could you please inform me on how to tell, whether the fluid has been changed or not?
    thanks in advance.
    p.s. there is no dipstick.

    If it had been changed it most likely would be indicated, so I would assume it hasn't.

    Just change it, then you know. DIY: ATF WS and the two washers should be about $40 at the dealer parts counter. My dealer has changed mine for about $90 to $110.
