When I last asked my mechanic to change my tranny fluid, the first question he asked me was whether or not it had been changed regularly, and if it wasn't (which it was) he would have suggested I not do it.

He said he had a recent incident involving changing trans fluid in an MB with high miles on it that hadn't been changed in a while, and after re-filling new fluid in, it wouldn't even back out of the garage. I agree, however, if you get to this point, it's probably going to die sooner or later regardless.
