It is important that You do not mix different types of transmission fluid because it can make it work less effectively and that can lead to damage with Your gears. You should check Your transmission fluid every time that You change Your oil. You will want to make sure that the fluid is filled properly and free from any signs of damage. If Your transmission fluid has any debris in it then it will look sparkly or reflective because it will be full of metal shavings. If You spot that You should replace it as soon as possible to prevent more damage.
