As the owner of a transmission shop, and 4 VX's, my husband says do NOT do ANYTHING with your fluid if you aren't having any issues. The filter can be changed after 100,000 but do not flush! Just our 2 cents...

And I am not an expert so a shop owner is probably better equipped to handle this question.Originally Posted by VXobsession
Not sure how you would change the filter without losing most of the fluid anyhow.

You win! I will do nothing except maybe a filter change at some point. I am not having any "problems" with hard shifting or slippage. The only tranny related issue I have experienced is that it takes a while, maybe 3 seconds or so, for the truck to go into reverse after shifting out of park.. not sure if this is common for VXes or not. Also, sometimes when I shift into reverse from drive, it sometimes will not shift at all unless I put it in park, and go back to reverse.. any thoughts?
Thanks!

The stall from Park to Reverse may indicate that you are low on fluid...make sure you are up to temp when you check the level.
