You need to raise the vehicle, place a drain pan under the transmission oil pan, remove the oil pan drain plug, the oil pan bolts, the oil pan, the gasket, the fluid filter, and the seal, and retain the seal for reuse.
Q: Why can't I reuse the transmission fluid I use for flushing?
A:
The very fine metal and clutch material debris from the transmission failure in the ATF cause failures with the hall effect speed sensors that are used to measure the flow rate. To avoid costly repairs, expensive filters, regular maintenance, and problems caused by a partially restricted filter, the filter was not included.
