Thanks for the info.. I went with mobil 3309.. about $5 qt.
Just going to do the drain and refill, 3 qts.at a time.
That method worked great for my 850 and it had over 255,000 miles and the transmission and is still going.

Make sure it is JWS 3309 compliant-- Mobil 1 makes one that I have used, and Toyota makes one too.

Good luck!
