If you have not done any ATF (Automatic Teransmission Fluid) maintenance, here is the thing to do:
1. Initial fluid change-over
1.1. DIY, drain from the pan 3 consecutive times, change the ATF filter at the last drain. Doing it 3 times because ATF resides in torque converters, ATF cooler and the pan. Draining the pan removes only about 35% of the fluid.
1.1. Shop, have any transmission shop do a complete ATF replacement (not flushing) by disconnecting the two ATF cooler lines and feed into one, while draining out of the other, until all clear.
1.2. Maintenance. Do the pan-drain every 10,000 miles.
The transmission will last and last and last.
Cheap maintenance
Cheers
