Did you really have a oil change before? If so, how the heck did they do it?
I assume they probably can't really change the oil since much stays trapped in the torque converter. The older Mazda Tributes use Ford CD4E transmissions with NO drain-plug in the converter. Ford recommends no changes ever unless contaminants are found in the oil.
There is a method using some expensive flushing equipment that runs a lot of oil through the transmission in a attempt to change it. I suspect most shops don't have that equipment, and I doubt it's worth the bother.
I don't know how all cars benefit from such changes, but I've got many Japanese cars with over 200K miles that have never been changed and never had a trans-problem. The frames rot out before any trans problems have ever showed up. The old "warning sign" is usually sluggish shifting in real cold weather. We start our cars at 25 F below and still work fine, even with those high miles.
