hello, Yall I am new to the forester community however long time subaru owner had wrx then lgt now a foz and love it wish I had bought one the first time!!

My problem is the tranny fluid is brown like gear oil for the diff....My LGT was a 5Eat and takes the same fluid as a 4eat and that fluid is red and in a silver bottle.....

The stealership I purchased vehicle from said they did all the maintenance. But, the tranny fluid is not red like subaru recommended stuff. I am thinking they put wrong stuff in....

Am I going to have potential tranny problems in the future??

I am goin to dealership tomorrow and getting fluids and going to do a slow tranny drain and flush 3 cycles depending on how much come out..

Does anyone know if all should be ok if I go this route?? Thanks.... :icon_sad:
