When does the CVT filter & pan gasket get replaced when changing the CVT fluid?

Hi Peter, 2 years ago I asked my Toyota dealer to replace the transmission fluid in my 2010 Prius but they told me they did not offer the service because it was sealed and would last for the lifetime of the car. When asked what was considered the "lifetime" of the car, they said it was about 120K miles, if I remember correctly. What a joke. I then found out here on youtube on how to do it myself and then did so. My manual called for Toyota Genuine ATF WS which as of today sells for about $48 US for 4 quarts on Amazon.

Thank you Peter for another great video and I had a quick question. 2010 Tacoma 4.0 with 163,000 miles would you recommend a drain and fill? I Need this truck to last me another 10 Years and bought as second owner from Toyota dealer can’t find it was ever done. Should I drain and fill? Thank you Ken

Should you be changing the transmission filter too? They do have one.

I agree that this is a great community. I’ve asked thing here in the comments and people are always willing to help. I like to diy mostly everything on my 07 Tacoma.

Did my own CVT fluid change on my 2015 Yaris with 90,000 miles 3 months ago,£43 for a 5L plastic bottle,not metal can. Got the genuine Toyota CVT FE fluid here in the UK. No need to remove the wheel on my Yaris,as there was room under the hood/bonnet. 2.2L also came out of my CVT.

It is cool. But what about filter in CVT? What OEM number of this part and how often need to change?.

Peter I have a 2011 Camry 2.5. 150,000 miles. I live in Florida. Consensus with mechanics around here is that if you have not changed the fluid before 100,000 miles you should leave it alone. The darkness is clutch material and if you replace it with clean fluid your transmission is more likely to slip and have damage. What are your thoughts?

And then in CVT vehicles, some have the PSD fluid in the back also.. hybrids.

I do Rear Diff and Transmission fluid every 50k miles. makes it easy to remember and puts it roughly for me about every 4 years.
