Why does the dipstick on a 2004 toyota Matrix transmission (A246E) say " Fluid should not have to be changed in normal operation", when it's getting dirtier by the month. At 32K now and I want to change it. The book says you can use Mobil 1 J3309, which you can't find. Local Service stations will flush and replace the fluid with everything from Cam2 to Valvoline products... All these products say they're compatible with the T-IV, but???. (Don't ask me why I won't go to a dealer...)
