If the fluid is dark, the damage has already been done to the transmission from overheating. I don’t think it will cause any problem that isn’t there now. New fluid will cause new sludge to come from the torque converter over the next couple of months. If you are not serious about doing it several times over a couple of months, there is no reason to start. I’d say it is a waste of money now.
