2024 Tesla Model Y — service lifetime transmission fluid or leave it alone?

TireDriver317Community StarterFeb 23, 20262024 Tesla Model Y Long RangeCentral Jersey
2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range, about 32,000 miles. The manual treats the fluid as lifetime under normal conditions, but the vehicle is getting older and I plan to keep it. What are owners doing in practice, and why choose drain-and-fill versus an exchange?

Intermittent stuff lies if you only catch it once. Move a coil or plug on the 2024 Tesla Model Y if it's cylinder-specific and see whether the code follows. Don't erase codes until someone who can help has seen them. On “service lifetime transmission fluid or leave it,” that was the fork that mattered for me. Keep sale price, fees, and rate as three different conversations. Climate here is different, so treat that as a local data point. This is the version I'd tell a friend.
