Recently I feel some jerk between 1st and 2nd gear. I want to exchange transmission fluid and filter by my self.
1.I am not sure if it has filter: our local dealer said: no filter at all; while I can find filter here
it make me confused.
2. Is that good to add some transmission conditioner?
3. Is that enough to follow these steps

What is this an Auto or Manual tranny-if its a Manual you don't-now an automatic-every one of them needs filtering-therefore it should have a filter.

Don't be putting anything it in other than the correct type of fluid-doing so can make things worst. Plus I don't believe in them.

If its manual find the drain plug -drain it plug it back up now go find the fill plug remove it-fill it with the correct typr gear oil.
