Should I pay for a gearbox oil change?
I own an 2007 Ford Focus. It's done 150,000 miles and never had an oil change, should this have been done? Is it too late to do this?

This version of the Ford Fiesta uses a four-speed torque converter auto transmission, which has a very good reputation for reliability.
Unless the car is in mint condition, I'm not sure it's worthwhile spending £300 - £400 draining and replacing the gearbox oil.
