I say change the fluid to a synthetic, like amsoil or royal purple. You will get the benefits of doing the service plus give yourself a bump in MPG's. My last automatic saw a 1-2 mpg bump once I changed the fluid to synthetic.

It definately changed the characteristics of the transmission for the better. It got smoother and quieter IMO.
