No way would I ever fail to drain this, as it holds much more fluid and crap that does the pan and filter .

You'll need a 5MM ATF Allen wrench, I prefer to use a 3/8Z" drive one, don't loose/forget the small sealing washer .

ATF expands about 10% when fully warmed up so fill to the lower dipstick mark then test drive it hard to fully warm up and add a little bit at a time until it's at the full mark .

Clean around the tranny BEFORE
you open it up ! .
