1) if i just want to top up, get it to 30* and top up BUT how do i know what fluid to add? Will any Dextron III do?
2)if replace & fix the leak i can add any compatible ATF i choose. Most guys recommend redoil or Castrol trans max. Or should i go for ZF own ATF oil?
Thanks!

As I already stated. ZF lifeguard 6 is the OE fluid. Many people including myself have used Redline D-4 with no issues. You need to verify the specs of the fluid you use. The ONLY safe option ANYONE can suggest is use the factory OE fluid!
