I buy transmission fluid from the dealer since it is a "synthetic oil" type fluid. Brake fluid is DOT-4 from anywhere althogh you can price it at the dealer.
DOT 3 brake fluid
DOT-4 is recommended
Yes, that is a very bad idea. The brake fluid will damage the trans seals, and it will start to leak.
Find the brake fluid reservoir under the hood. It will be labeled with a "Use DOT 3 brake fluid only" warning. Add your DOT 3 fluid to the reservoir until it reaches the full mark. If you let the reservoir get totally empty, you will need to bleed your brake system (and clutch if you have a manual transmission).
