It's been a couple of months now with no issues and even longer from others here with no issues. I believe empirical evidence this far suggests ATF.

I think it doesn't really matter as long as they're not mixed. Which ever one you choose just do a good flush

One of the easier maintenance items - I did it in less than 30 minutes over the weekend. Used the Redline ATF fluid. Dark fluid out, red fluid in. No differences noted.
