Method for changing automatic transmission fluid: 1. Drain the old automatic transmission fluid; 2. Remove the drain plug on the automatic transmission oil pan to completely drain the fluid inside the pan. Depending on the situation, remove the oil pan, thoroughly clean the oil pan and filter screen, and clean the cooler. Then reinstall the oil pan and drain plug; 3. Use compressed air to blow out as much fluid as possible from the torque converter through the filler port; 4. When refilling, add the specified automatic transmission fluid to the prescribed fluid level height; 5. Drain all the fluid again and repeat steps 1, 2, and 3; 6. Start the engine and, while the engine is idling, move through all gear positions before returning to the P position. If the fluid level is low at this point, continue adding fluid until it reaches the prescribed height; 7. Once the normal operating temperature is reached, check again whether the fluid level under hot conditions is near the upper limit of the dipstick scale, and adjust the fluid level height accordingly.
