Auto-Transmission Filter

[c2cummin]

Just wondering for those who have changed their automatic transmission fluid if it's necessary to change the filter as well.

I've read different things saying you need to and some saying you don't. I called a GM dealership a few weeks back and they don't even stock the part because the filters aren't changed that often.

Just wanted see what a few people who have done it thought!

I'm 98,000 km's and I'm pretty sure it's the original fluid, no way of knowing for sure since I'm not the original owner, I bought the car at 72,000 km's.

The fluid is still reddish but it's dark red.
