My friend had his done for the first time at 152k and it shifted a bit better. I would just change the fluid.

Also I am not 100% but I am pretty sure the original color of this fluid is not red, I think it may be a clean motor oil color. But I am not 100% sure.
I went to the dealer at 78k to change the fluid and mb of palm beach mess it up. DONT EVER GO THERE. they also over filled it.
