It is only a lifetime fluid if you want a short lifespan for your tranny.
    Any idea how much fluid change would cost?

    Also - I believe they changed all fluids when I got my new TC. I don't know the mechanics that come with installing a new TC. Can anyone advise if they would have had to put in new transmission fluid when installing the TC?

    There's a nice DIY on it. I think they said ~300-400$ for the parts. Unsure about if you got a shop to do it. I was going to do this at my next oil change ~ 2000 km away, as I have the same revving issue and transmission isnt as smooth when the car is cold.
