    Hey All,

    My local Toyota dealership has an automatic transmission flush at 60,000 mile service. The Toyota Prius C manual does not list that there as a needed service. Is that worth doing? This is my first hybrid... shrugs :0

    Thanks!

    Your Dealer's schedule is for his boat payments.

    That said, I do recommend periodic replacement of the ATF. I favor 30,000 miles, 90,000 miles then every 90,000 miles, but any routine is fine.

    How much are they asking? Shouldn't be over $100. Could be just semantics, but all that's involved is a simple drain and fill, not "flush".
    Also, be dang sure they're using Toyota ATF-WS.
