Your best bet is a full transmission service, new fluid, screen, etc. The fluids are your car's blood. They get contaminated/depleted from use and need to be replaced. Additives are not recommended unless you need a band-aid, for an oil leak, for instance. Otherwise stay away from them and practice good preventive maintenance.
