In my poor, uneducated mind, 60K sounds reasonable. Our 2016 OB is getting it's 60K maintenance next week at a well know and respected "Suby-only" mechanic shop. I asked them about CVT fluid and they told me, "If it were my car, I'd do a "drain-and-fill" at 60K. They didn't push the service...I brought it up.

What do y'all think? Reasonable? Would a full flush be better?

We are the type of people that buy new cars and keep them until they die. I'd really like to get 200K+ out of this 'ol 3.6 and CVT.
