08' G37S Tranny and Diff fluid change question, help asap!

I am considering a purchase of a 08' G37S Auto Coupe with about 33k miles on it from southern CA. I am assuming that the tranny and diff oils have never been changed on this car. Can anyone speak to whether I should change these oils asap. Is there a way to check the tranny and diff oils on the G or are they both sealed with no filler reservoir? Any help/opinions on this would be appreciated as I do not have much time to read through a bunch of threads on the site to get the answers as I am driving 3 hours to S.D. tomorrow to look at the car.

Thanks!

LOL I will be a pretty active member! I was on the Planet 9 site too! I am trying see if Stillen can look at it on Saturday.

Does anyone know of a reputable mechanic in San Diego or LA area that can check this out?

Just change them if you're unsure. It's relatively inexpensive.

The car has 33k miles so not sure if it is due or not.
