Between 35k and 75k miles depending on how you drive and how much towing you do It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

If you change the oil by the normal method early enough you can avoid the need for a megaflush. The ability to flush the 8-speed is needed by those who have hit 70k or more without any gearbox servicing.
When it comes to oil - change early, change often.
