Transmission fluid again...

As you have seen in my previous post: http://www.xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-foru...good-news.html, I obvioulsy have to change the fluid in my GM transmission (engine is a 3.0I). I did some searches in the forum but I'd like to get more advices about what kind of fluid to use, giving that the car has 119000 miles and the fluid had never been changed.
- 1rst, can I use any fluid brand without damaging the tranny? I plan to replace the fluid in several times (say 3 times every 50 km) to get a chance to replace most of the old fluid, but there will be a point where there will be some mixes between the old and the new fluid.
- 2nd, I can't find OEM fluid where I'm living in the Caribbean, so I have to use some Dexron fluid. What kind of Dextron can I use, Dexron II, Dexron III?
Any advice is welcome!
Thanks in advance.
