Yes. I would change all fluids--engine, transmission, brake, coolant, and power steering. Ditto for fuel in the gas tank. Then, you should be fine.

There are so many misconceptions about changing fluids that it's ridiculous. Get a pan and ratchet wrench and do it yourself; otherwise, take it someplace else. It won't hurt a thing to change the transmission fluid and it may save it from sever damage. Go by what your Owner's Manual or Service Manual says--not someone at NTB.
