30K mile service

I know the maintenance schedule is probably in the manual, but is the transmission fluid changed at 30K miles? I want to change to the Redline MT fluid when it is done. If I purchase the Redline and take it to the dealership, will they switch it out, or will they only use their own products? What can I expect to pay for that service?

I just had my tranny and rear diff fluid replaced with redline products. I took the fluids to the dealer and he replaced both and all I was charged was 1 hour worth of labor. Roughly $80. Hope it helps.

redline tranny oil should make shifting noticeably smoother

i'm planning to do that in a couple years (or 30k miles, whichever comes first :D )
