owners manual says 60k with normal driving and 30k with frequent spirited driving. I say do it every 30k at a minimum. doing mine at 10-15k as well.

yep, I bought mine with 19k kms on the dash, I changed the SST fluid at 20k kms, and it really changed the driving experience, the trans runs much smoother then, so I bet it's best to make it in a 10~15k schedule.

I actually called AMS and told me to stick to manufacturer's recommendation. Doing it more frequently is overkill . My sure if it's just an opinion or whether everything that's been said so far it's also an opinion, tough decisions

Recommended for DD: first time at 10K miles, second at 30K miles, then every 30K miles after that. Fluid doesn't break down so quickly if you don't overheat the trans.

Mine felt sluggish at 40k so i changed it then. Recommended by SSP every 30k. Change the filter out as well unless you get the aluminum filter from SSP. Then clean the filter each oil change

The only market with a 60k mile interval is North America. Thank JD Power and Associates cost of ownership surveys for this. World market service interval is 50k KILOMETER, or 31068 miles. This is more sensible.

^huh! Good info - I just assumed there was sound engineering analysis behind the interval - but I think you are correct. It would incentivize Mitsu to do this...
