Just went in for my 95,000 service. Asked to have the trans fluid changed. Dealer said is a special fluid, Volvs feels is better than synthetic and don't recommend changing until it "looks bad". I explained thinking of many BBers should be done every 30K miles or so. He went on to say it costs ~ $450 and they typically find need to change at ~150K miles.

Is this true for my trans? I've been trying to be very thorough on maintenance and courious how long I can drive this car. Right now, looks/runs as good as day I got it.
