its pretty easy.
for normal service a drain and fill is sufficient
but i usually service it the way its done in the service manual. u get out more of hte old fluid.
put the car into neutral and put the ebrake up.
disconnect the cooler lines, get another piece of small hose and put that on the nipple on the oil cooler. run those 2 hoses to a container, like a oil drain pan or a big milk jug.
start the car and let the fluid drain out and shut the car down when there isn't any more fluid coming out.
go to the tranny, pull out the drain bolt, let that drain. put the drain bolt back in
pour a little less than 6 quarts in there.
start the car up again, let the oil from the lines drain again. shut the car off when that stops.
pour in a little less than 4 quarts of tranny oil in there.
reconnect the oil cooler lines
start the car, let it idle for 2 mins.
go through the gear selector and shift through all the different gears
put the car back into neutral, with the brake up, check the tranny oil.
adjust as needed.
a piece of advice from me. if you odn't have a drain pan yet, get like a big one. i now have a 15qt drain pain just cuz my 5qt one wasn't sufficient without stopping at every step to empty it.
oh another thing. if you're in the area, rockville mitsu has the cheapest price for a case of tranny oil. i think last time i was there it was like 50 some bucks a case, whereas ourisman wanted like 60 some bucks a case.
