Hi xavega505
Since the car has no service records I would definitely change/flush all the trans fluid, new filter and the electronic plug connector while they are under there. I would also change all other fluids in the car just to establish a base line to go from for future maintenance. As mentioned above, how many miles are on the car? Welcome by the way.
