    Hi Im Jeff and Im new here. Can someone please tell me how often I should change my transmission fluid on my 2011 Toyota Tacoma V6 , I can’t get a straight answer from any dealership. I have about 110 and have owned it since about 35k miles. Also a tech I work with said I need new shocks and struts, this is my daily driver and no off road (gas mileage blows i get like 12mpg) I found some shocks at Detroit Axle, any suggestions would be great. Tia. Jeff

    I have not. I asked the dealer when I was probably at 80k and at 100k and they said I didn’t have to do it which I thought didn’t make sense. I actually have an appointment to get ir done tmrw. but i’ve also heard if i have this many miles and I have not changed it and don’t have any issues with it which I do not to not even change it
