Removal
CAUTION: The use of any other transmission fluid than specified, can result in the transmission failing to operate in a normal manner or
transmission failure.
1. With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist.
2. Remove the fluid fill plug fluid level indicator assembly located on the passenger side front portion of the transmission case. Removal of the plug
will relieve any vacuum that might have built up in the transmission. This will aid in allowing the fluid pan to be easily removed when the bolts are
removed.
3. Remove the transmission fluid pan and allow the fluid to drain.
