Amsoil Mtg. 3 Quarts. Just switched to it and trans shifts way better than the stock fluid.

if you are crazy picky like me every 5k but thats just me, i have too many cases of it sitting around here plus it makes me feel good

now seriously, the reccomended is double the OEM spec, remember synthetic fluids are not made out of pertolium so they dont brake down as easy and as quick.
