yeah, NEVER use those flush places... just drive up on ramps, slide under there, and pull the two drain plugs, one in the pan, one in the torque converter. then I also pull the cooler hose connections, and drain the cooler too. gets ALL the fluid out. then drop the pan, change the filter, then clean the pan with brake spray, then put a new gasket on the pan, and put it all back together.
fill the trans with 4 quarts of fluid, and start the car, then add 1/2 quart every 10 minutes checking the level, stop when it gets to the lowest line and go for a drive to get the fluid fully up to operating temp, then park on the levelest spot possible, and get the level perfect at the top line.
done.
