Default Levorg Sti CVT fluid recommendations

I am reading that the CVT fluid is lifetime and never needs changing but I don't like that.
I'm thinking at the 55,000miles oil change, having the cvt done also. Surely new oil cant hurt? And reading horror stories of the 1.6CVT failing with ease, it does scare me tbh.

So What CVT fluid in the UK would be best for my cvt. I'm thinking this one:

Amsoil Synthetic CVT Fluid for Continuously Variable Transmissions - 1 US Quart 97012376124 | eBay

Thank you.

The 2.0 UK/Euro model uses a "similar" 20E engine and TR690 (high torque) CVT unit
UK/Euro MY2017
TR690SB7BA p/n 31000AJ980
Revision "E" Levorg STI
TR690GB6CA p/n 31000AJ990

So have attached the Recommended materials relating to the MY17 WRXSTI/LEvorg UK/Europe models as a pdf
Plus the Levorg capacities sheet.
