At one time (20+ years ago), it was recommended at 100,000 miles. A wise tale was going around at the same time, that if it wasn't changed at the 100,000 mile mark, don't ever change it. Don't suprize me that its 150k these days. I doubt they are pre-tested and fluid changed before installation in new vehicle. Factory only test drives random vehicles. 1 in 10 would be a good guess. If selected, a sticker is attached to/left in vehicle to notify dealership that it was randomly selected for a test drive. It will have 20 or 30 miles on the odometer, instead of less than 5 or 10 usually seen on vehicles not selected. And those miles are from parking after built, loaded on and off carriers while being delivered to dealership. I use to prep new vehicles for customer delivery at a dealership.

Didn't want to get in a fender bender with someones new vehicle they hadn't even gotten yet. Also, didn't see the need with factory warranty on it, if something went wrong once delivered to customer. I didn't slack on the inspection part of it though. Didn't want something coming back on me, such as no engine oil in it.
