I use Valvoline Max Life ATF. Myele gasket. Maybe a Meistersatz Transmission Filter. Where to get depends on where you live, I got parts from Amazon and Ebay but I am in the USA.
Consider the TransGo valve replacement to avoid future significant trans problems.

I've done all my transmission fluid changes using Mobil 1 ATF which I buy from Amazon in 6qt cases. It's usually cheapest that way or otherwise you are paying like $10/qt locally. I think I usually use about 8-9qts each time I change the fluid.

As for my filter and gasket kit, I have used the Meyle kit every time. I purchase my filter kits two at a time along with Mahle fuel and/or oil filters to save on shipping.
