Should I change 04 coupe trans fluid?

Bought the car at 82k miles. Not sure if the previous owners changed the trans fluid. It's at 86k now. Should I change it? Like drain and flush? Or just partial drain and flush? Thanks.

I'm assuming you're auto cuz you said flush..?

If so, yeah, don't flush. Just drain n fill.

If mt, obviously that's your only option. Just don't flush if you're auto.

I changed my atf on my g. Not sure if the previous owner had done it. I bought 5 quarts of valvoline max life atf. And also bought the transmission filter. I let all the oil drain out, then put everything back, and put 5 quarts of fluid. And here i am months later still running strong.
