dealer talked me out of service

Grew up in one, but learned from a long-ago college commute in and out of Boston, Mass that I could choose to live close to where I worked. Except for a few short-duration temporary re-assignments, I've been right so far.

I changed my trans fluid at 40k, I have a manual. 3.15 qts of non synthetic ATF mercon 5. Old stuff came out not as thick and wasnt extacly pink anymore. They say 30k miles or something for mine...
I change my oil (mobil 1) every 5-6k miles.

Concerning the "color" of motor oil.. I've been using amsoil sig series 0w-30 since the car had 10k on it.
It's kinda strange but the oil turns blood-red when it gets loaded with combustion by-products. It retains it's honey color up to about 10k miles then starts to change to this deep blood-red color. That's when I change it. I could probably run it out to 15k (been experimenting with some 12k changes) but when it changes to that blood red color I swap it. Wacky..
