Transmission problem
2003 Volvo S60 Engine Size unknown All Wheel Drive Automatic 65000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
Hi,
I have an 03 S60AWD with 65Kmileage. Dealership tells me I need a Transmission Fluid Flush and Fill - I've been told by local repair shop that specializes in Euro car repair that since it's Synthetic - it should last a lifetime (unless I'm having problems -which I'm not). Trying not to get taken advantage of as a new Volvo female owner!
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Sometimes flushing the transmission can create a problem-you best bet is just change fluid and filter-
