How To Switch Out Tranny Fluid

01-10-2006, 05:36 PM

110,000 No idea if the transmission has ever been serviced, its sealed so i cant even check the level of the fluid.
im guessing i'll take off the transmission pan and switch out the filter.
I dont know tho.

a "how to" would be nice

thanks

I can write one up but I dont have any pictures, and btw if you have 110K and dont know if the fluid has ever been changed then I wouldnt touch it. The Tranny is so complex that sometimes the dirty tranny fluid is necessary for it to work properlly, new fluid will create slips you never had before and what not.

i agree...sometimes the sludge is what is holding the tranny together and keeping the plugs filled.

what about just changing half?

Its impossible because when you change the tranny fluid its suppose to be done in incriments just like oil, so the whole point is to keep the tranny system clean. Therefore if you go to change it after 60K or more your wasting your time because you arent changing the dirty filter....
