Is a transmission service necessary?

Yes, but how dirty? There are fifty shades of dirty. There is normal dirty, and there is your-tranny-is-toast dirty. That, my naked eyes cannot see smh.

Lol, true.

Once it starts to get dark, just change it. If it's really dark, drop the pan.

It should be done every 80-100k km. It's not rocket science.

When you dropped the plan to change the filter on yours, did you also replace the two rubber rings inside?

Sorry, which rings are you referring to? My mechanic did it, but I curiously watched most of the process.
