Default Transmission Fluid

Hey there
I have a civic 2006 coupe MT whit 75233 mi, the last transmission oil change was at 25000 mi. The dealer recommends not make the change now and wait for the box stop working. I don't know what to do, other machanicals recommends me only filling the tank and some recommend changing.
What do i do?, any suggestions?

box stop working? huh?

change it every 3 years, or about 30k miles. drive hard? change it sooner. I change mine yearly. its not terribly expensive to have someone do it for you, if you arent comfortable doing it on your own.

DANG. 4 times a year.

I change mine every 30k for DD's. And 10K for track cars.

30K is a totally fine interval.
