Either way, trans fluid lasts a maximum of 5 years or 50,000 miles. It need to get changed. Controversially [note: nobody here likes my opinion], I recommend a flush to everyone, regardless of miles. Because I don't believe that a transmission is made of magic. All that's supposed to be in there is parts and trans fluid.

If you get it flushed, make sure to give your mechanic EXPRESS instructions to follow GM procedure to a T; which means NO solvents, just Dextron. Nothing but Dextron. Ever. Seahorses. Forever.
