Transmission fluid lubricates the gears and carries heat away, and over time it breaks down. Your Warranty and Maintenance Guide lists what your transmission needs; ask the service department.
Transmission fluid flows through the transmission and does two jobs at once. It lubricates the gears, and it carries heat away from them.
