It is never bad to change the ATF fluid and that may fix your problem. Drain and flush out the tranny and refill with the correct ATF fluid. Drop the pan and change the filter. Check the pan for metal filings and clean them off the magnet. I would go to a shop that has a power flush machine that will suck out all the fluid efficiently. If this does not do the trick, check the TCM module for proper operation. You can also go to an auto parts store and get a free OBDII scan that will tell you if you have fault codes coming from the transmission and identify the faulty sensor or module.
