Hi, I have Corolla 2016 (200k miles on it), did not have major repair for last 30k miles, do I need to change the transmission fluid? No light is on the dash. The only problem that I have is when the car is in drive mode and on brake (red light), it starts to shake a little bit. I have to put it in neutral to get rid of the shaking. I have changed the sparks recently. I am worried that changing transmission fluid bring other problems.

not very clear
which part isn't clear?
Also the Corolla was offered with three different transmissions that year:
- four-speed automatic
- six-speed manual
- CVTi-S
Please indicate which one you have.

This is the classic sign that your torque converter starting to wear out. Scotty's Celica shakes when idling at a stoplight, and he just shifts it into neutral if he doesn't like the shaking. It doesn't hurt the transmission.
