You might think about running about 650-700cc's of a light-weight trans fluid in cooler weather, say 5W-30 or Dexron ATF in the "Edition" type engine.

You can check if you loaded the correct amount by looking in the little round window on the right side of the tranny. It should be about half way up the window.

In my '02 Edition, I've been using the cheapest ATF I can find at Walmart, and it works just fine. I change it 2 or 3 times per year, and clean off the drain plug magnet while I'm at it.
