98 Honda Accord Tranny Fluid

[Vibe_dude]

I have a 98 Accord dx with the 4 spd auto..It now has 189,000 kms on the tranny...and as far as I know, it still has the same tranny fluid that it came with from the factory...My ? is this...Should I do a tranny flush and change or just leave it in there as is?I have heard ppl say change it now.others say do not do anything now.the milage is mostly all highway..but now is all short city drives.No racing or hard driving done on or will be done with the car...Just need the tranny to last a long time.Thx's for ur comments and opinions.
