Start the servicing and repair process of automatic transmission fluid by supporting the vehicle on a suitable lift position. The Drain Plug must be removed from the transmission fluid while you let the liquid drain into the suitable drain pan. Remember to examine the fluid for darkening and contamination before discarding the old plug. You should then install a new transmission fluid Drain Plug which needs to be fastened to 20 nm (15 ft. Lbs.). Begin by taking off the fluid pan bolts before using a rubber mallet to gently tap the fluid pan in order to break its seal. Begin by taking out the fluid pan together with its gasket before you clean and check the magnet along with pan bolts and gasket for signs of damage or deterioration. A long screwdriver should be used for fluid filter prying and the universal seal remover (J23129) and slide hammer adapter (J6125-1B) should extract the 2 fluid filter seals. Place 2 new fluid filter seals onto the transmission fluid filter neck before applying a small amount of transjel lubricant (J36850) or petroleum jelly to them. The installation of the transmission fluid filter must be done within the case yet separate installation of the fluid pan is required before gasket application unless sealing surface damage is present. Firmly tighten the fluid pan bolts to 11 nm torque value (97 inch lbs.). Proceed with filling the transmission to correct specifications before lowering the automobile while inspecting the Oil Pan Gasket for potential leaks.

Repair and service of automatic transmission fluid and filter demands that you start by lifting the car along with vehicle support followed by placing a drain pan underneath the transmission fluid Drain Plug. Take out and dispose of the transmission Drain Plug which allows fluid to flow while you examine it for signs of discoloration and contamination. The service requires users to install a new transmission fluid Drain Plug followed by tightening to 20 nm (15 ft. Lbs.). To free the fluid pan proceed by loosening its bolts. A rubber mallet can be used to gently tap when needed. Take out the fluid pan together with its gasket before you thoroughly clean and examine the magnet and pan and bolts and gasket for damage or wear. A long screwdriver should be used to remove the fluid filter while you use the universal seal remover (J23129) and slide hammer adapter (J6125-1B) to take out the 2 fluid filter seals. Install two new fluid filter seals onto the transmission fluid filter neck while smuggling the edges with lightly moistened transjel lubricant (J36850) or petroleum jelly. The installation of the transmission fluid filter should be performed into the transmission case while simultaneously putting in the fluid pan and gasket unless noticeable damage exists on the sealing surface. Secure the fluid pan bolts with 11 nm of torque when possible (97 inch lbs.). After filling the transmission to its correct level lower the vehicle down then check for any oilpan gasket leakages.

Install 2 NEW fluid filter seals onto the transmission fluid filter neck, coating them with a small amount of J 36850 Transjel Lubricant or petroleum jelly before installation.

Remove the three fluid pan bolts and, if necessary, lightly tap the fluid pan with a rubber mallet to loosen it.

Fill the transmission to the proper level and lower the vehicle, finally inspecting the oil pan gasket for leaks.

Fill the transmission to the proper level, lower the vehicle, and inspect the oil pan gasket for leaks.

Discard the drain plug and allow the fluid to drain completely while inspecting it for discoloration and contamination.

Install a new transmission fluid drain plug and tighten it to 20 Nm (15 ft. lbs.).

Remove the fluid pan bolts, then take off the fluid pan and gasket.

Remove the fluid pan bolts and, if necessary, lightly tap the fluid pan with a rubber mallet to loosen it.

Install a NEW transmission fluid drain plug and tighten it to 20 N.m (15 lb ft).

Raise and support the vehicle.

Use a long screwdriver to pry out the fluid filter and remove the two fluid filter seals with the Universal Seal Remover and Slide Hammer Adapter.

Place two new fluid filter seals onto the transmission fluid filter neck, coating them with a small amount of Transjel Lubricant (J 36850) or petroleum jelly.
