Transmission Fluid will last roughly 70,000-80,000 miles so anywhere in there.
I do it at about 50K miles.
You can follow the instructions in your owner's manual or change it every 50,000 miles.
Yes. If memory serves, you want to do that about every 30,000 miles.

You can not check the transmission fluid on the 2002 L200 or L300, due to this transmission is a sealed transmission. I bought my L200 new and this is one of the new transmissions Saturn was using from Germany. My question at this point is when does the transmission fluid need to be change. Mine has 100k miles plus. I have a chiltons manual on this particular model and this manual gives very ggod directions on how to change the fluid, filter etc. But when. Is 100k miles time to change the fluid and filter. Now I know where to get this answer, call our local Saturn dealer and ask the question.
the transmission has to be spit apart in order to change the trans filter.
You don't. It does have a strainer inside the transmission that is permanent.
I have had to replace my 2002 Mazda Tribute Transmission at around 150,000 miles. I am not sure if this is normal, and all of my miles were mostly highway. I replaced it with a rebuild and it cost me around 3600 dollars.
There is NO drain plug! To change fluid you have to remove the transmission pan.

I have a 2002 Hyundai Accent. The transmission had to be completely rebuilt at 101,000 miles. Prior to that, I had already taken the car in twice for transmission problems.
