My rig just hit 35k and I did a simple Automatic Transmission Fluid change, drained only the pan and refilled. No issues, and it actually took longer to take pics than do the job. Used the Hyundai / Kia SPIII fluid from the dealer to avoid any warranty headaches, so saving $13 wasn't really worth the risk. Just sharing.

Not much value but what is that if the pump runs with a jumper, your relay is likely not getting the signal it needs
