EASY STEPS IN CHANGING TRANSMISSION FLUID & FILTER[http://www.goodoil4u.com/easychangingtrans.html Click here get a PDF version (8k)] ISSUES:
Many quick lube oil change companies are using flushing machines to change the automatic Transmission Fluid. Using flushing machines does not address the need for cleaning the sediment in the transmission pan, cleaning the magnet inside the transmission pan, or changing the transmission oil filter. TECHNICAL DISCUSSION:
Flushing machines are used to provide a quick transmission fluid change, however they do not address transmission pan cleanliness or filter changes. By taking the transmission pan off, sediment in the pan as well as the magnet can be cleaned, and the fluid filter can be changed. Manufacturers recommend a filter change with the oil change, and recommend against the use of flushing machines due to possible fluid contamination from pan sediment. RECOMMENDATION:
AMSOIL recommends transmission fluid and filter changes based on the following 14 steps. For a transmission pan and filter oil change follow steps 1 through 12 and 14, for a complete system flush and filter change, follow steps 1 through 14. 1. Access the AMSOIL web page (www.amsoil.com) and click on the [http://www.amsoil.com/scripts/runisa.dll?amsoiloaf:index On Line Product Applications Guide] for the correct transmission fluid, amount of fluid and transmission filter before starting the transmission and filter change procedure. Have these on hand when starting the fluid and filter change. 2. For best results, transmission fluid should be at normal operating temperature before draining the fluid (Caution: fluid will be hot). 3. With the engine off, position a drain pan under the transmission pan and drain the fluid by loosening the pan bolts. Loosen one corner more than the rest to direct the flow into the drain pan. 4. Finish removing the transmission pan bolts, and lower the transmission pan down carefully (Some fluid is still in the transmission pan). 5. Remove the old filter and discard. Most transmission filters are held in place with a bolt or two however, some are held by a clip. Make sure filter O-rings or seals are discarded with the filter. 6. Install the new filter by using the same bolts or clips and use a new O-ring or seal (supplied with the new filter). 7. Inspect the pan before cleaning. A small amount of fine gray clutch dust is normal. However, if you find metal shavings, there could be a mechanical malfunction or transmission damage. 8. Clean the transmission pan thoroughly with solvent and wipe dry so there is no harmful residue. In some transmission pans there is also a magnet that should be cleaned and reinstalled in the same position in the transmission pan. Clean the transmission and transmission pan mating surfaces of all gasket material being careful not to damage the surfaces. 9. Position the transmission pan gasket on the pan. Some gaskets have four holes slightly smaller than the rest to allow threading four bolts through the pan and through these smaller gasket holes to hold the gasket in place. 10. Hand-tighten the transmission bolts in a crisscross pattern until snug. Use a torque wrench to tighten the bolts to the proper ft-lbs using the manufacturer recommended torque specifications. 11. Refill the transmission through the dipstick fill hole using the amount shown as
