Fill and drain.

Hey guys, I got my tranny flush at 90000 miles and now it's almost 100000 miles, the tranny fluid is brown now. Should I do a fill and drain? How many miles do you all usually do a fill and drain? Every 3000 miles?

i think the general rule for tranny fluid is 15k miles. if you just got it done at 90k then i would wait until 105k to do it. if you're really paranoid then by all means go ahead and do it for peace of mind. i let acura do mine last time because i happened to be there anyway. i don't know if they used the vacuum system or what they did.
