Most dealers will advise against touching high mileage transmissions with no history of fluid changes. This seems to be related mostly to liability issues in case a dirty/worn transmission dies after a flush or fluid change and then hard to explain to the customer what may have happened. So they just refuse to do it, or charge unrealistic prices to deter you or to cover their ass.
