I want to drain torque converter and clean pan and replace gasket and filter but do it well,i need tutorial or instructions,can anyone shoot me one over or more than one.thanks

Im working on mercedes Diesels of course
w116 and w123.

They might want to know what car?

If it's a 722.6 here is a link from the DIY section.

The 722.4 will be similar but will already have a dipstick, won't need an infrared thermometer to measure temp, and the fluid will be different.

if you don't have a 27mm and a breaker bar..you can use a strong flathead screw driver leveraged in the housing and slowly rotate clockwise until you get to the torque converters allen bolt...

a lot of fluid comes out of the converter...

best advice: have a plastic lined box or pan larger than the pan... no way to avoid spiillage and a mess when the pan is removed....about a half quart remains in the pan after you drain it...

i use synthetic since it will be in there for 30k miles... dont' notice a difference between it and regular fluid..but it makes me feel better.
