High mileage transmission fluid change?

I’m new to Infiniti and I bought a used 2011 g37 with 105,000 originally & now I have 120,000 miles on it. Car drives great and shifts very smoothly. I’ve never changed the transmission fluid during my ownership nor do I know if previous owner did. Should I have it changed at such high miles? Would there be any adverse effects?

I would change it. Don't do a flush, but drop the pan and give it a good cleaning.

Here's the DIY thread on how it's done.

I changed my g37 transmission oil for the first time after 150k miles. no issues at all. origional oil was very dark red, not black. Cleaned the pan. didn't need the gasket. filled up with 5 qtr of new atf and drove for a week. I then dropped 5 qt of atf and renewed that and hey presto! Sweet as a nut.
