Gotta love old Toyotas. My 2001 Camry just hit 135k miles

Get the transmission fluid changed if you haven’t.

Might want to do the slow change at those miles if it's never been done. Just drain some, then add the amount that drained out.

Changed it when I first got the car, but thank you for the reminder. I have another ~30k miles to go before it needs to be changed again :)

Why is this important more so than at other times? I know nothing about cares and have a Highlander with ~130k miles

You should get it changed when it calls for it in the manual. But many people forget so the sooner the better. Check the manual or online for all preventative maintenance. Also go to a local trusted garage instead of dealerships to get the work done. You will save thousands. Avoid those in and out garages like the plague.

I've got a 2018 corolla with 118k miles. I think it calls for the change at 125k. It's the CVT and whenever I've previously brought it up at the dealership, they act like I'm stupid and say no need...

Nissan's CVTs go at about 100k with no fluid changes

That’s because Nissan CVTs are getting replaced every 40k
