That would probably make me nervous too. Thats a hard call I have always been a if the fluid is good flush it type of guy but with no history at that mileage I don't know what I would do. Keep in mind if there is clutch material in the fluid that is keeping the trans going a flush and fill will eliminate some of that too and could cause concerns.
