Agree with Tannaton on this one, I did a poll on here and nobody with a working auto box 'caused' problems by changing the oil!
I changed the oil in mine at 225k with no evidence it had been done before, it behaved oddly for a while as I didn't reset the gearbox software but crucially it did no damage.
I later reset the software and my previously (prior to oil change) jumping flaring grumbling gearbox is 95% better then it was.
Be doing mine again soon.
