Totally drain the auto transmission box! there’s about 7 litres in there undoing the drain plug will only drain 2 to 3 litres. How do you totally drain the remaining litres ?

THe only way possible to get all the tranny fluid out is to co to a shop that flushes them. You can not get all the fluid out by just pulling the plug. THe torque converter is full of fluid. that is were most of it goes. You have to get something done called a T-Tech Trans flush.

yes a t-tech is one of the only ways to get all the fluid out.but first ya gotta look at how many miles are on the tranny.and when it was last serviced.i have the t-tech machine at my shop but i will NEVER flush one out over 150k.

when it gets to that point if its not regulary maintained its wise to just drop the pan and change the filter and clean all the junk out of the bottom and magnet. if ya got more miles then that i would just suggest draining and refilling only whats in the pan. believe it or not but ya can kind of send the tranny in shock and it will fail.

Hmm after hearing the thing about the Dexron I am kinda wondering if putting Trick Shift in my car id a good idea...

With the drain plug out, Start your car up and let it idle a little. Dont change the gear. That will pump any remaining fluid out. And when you fill it up there is a specific way you have to do it, I am not sure. You have to let it idle for a long time though.

Is it safe to put trick shift in my car?
