Use mobile 1 synthetic (verify with dealer that they used synthetic and not regular), ATF type should be listed in owners manual for the type, and regular DOT 3 brake fluid will be just fine. for the ATF it might be better to take it to a transmission shop so they can use the machine to flush it out. How many miles do you have on the car? you shouldn't have to do ATF flushed until 60K to 90K depending on how you drive. ATF should be checked every 30K.

If you get it serviced at the dealer there suppose to check all the Fluid levels and make sure everything is ok. should be no reason to change the ATF. When you did your brakes did you bleed out the brake fluid?
