They 'don't recommend it' because they want you to bring them money to pay for a new transmission when it blows up. Volvo says they put 'lifetime' transmission fluid in. So it's good for like 5 years more or less. Jeep says the same thing in their owners manual because they're idiots. The ATF fluid gets old and needs to be changed in ANY car. I'd say that it really depends on how you drive and what you DO with your car (lots of stop & go/towing/climbing lots of hills/lead-footed driving) that determines the interval, but 30K/2 years is a good interval for changing most fluids.
