[Peugeot-L] 404 Fluids

I would like any and all to weigh in on the subject of fluid replacements for the 404 Automatique.

I've gleaned from prior postings that the worm gear differential should take castor based gear oil, and the USA choice is Blendzall Green label 460 to replace Castrol R60. Any opinion on length of time beteween fluid replacements?

It also appears by consensus that the brake fluid to replace Lockheed 55 should be DOT 3.

What I have NOT been able to determine thus far is the replacement Auto transmission fluid for Shell "Donax". I've looked at BMW sites as well, as it appears that contemporary BMW 2002 autos also share the ZF 3HP12 transmission. I happen to have a client who is a sales rep for Shell lubricants, and alhough she was looking into it did not know the correct superceding product

Any thoughts?
