I want to drain my transmission oil the normal way. Just by unscrewing the lug. How much oil will be drained?

 

Keep in mind that it is a Automatic transmission.

4.5 liters.(Smth like 5.5 liters will rest in the transmission/radiator)

 

4.5 liters sounds like a bunch. Doesn't Coke come in 2 liter bottles?

 

I need to change the trasmission fluid soon. How do I do that and do I need to change the filter as well? I have tried thread searching and no result on that or the FAQ.

 

Yes, it does, but I used 10 liters drink water bottle...
Anyway, I checked specs in several places and it sounds like dry auto tranny system takes 10 oz of ATF and just drain/refill takes not more than 4.5 liters. I've replaced my ATF fluid recently in favor of Redline D4 ATF and used procedure which was described somwhere on the Internet:

1. drain ATF usual way.
2. disconnect hose which goes from radiator to the tranny and put it into the same bottle with old ATF. That way you'll know how much old ATF was drained. Fill 4-5 liters of fresh ATF through the charge pipe(it's where the dipstick is located), using funell.
3. start the engine and shift it to various positions, including reverse. The old ATF should come out of the hose to the bottle. When it adds up about 4 liters, add 2 more liters of fresh ATF and repeat this step until it reaches 10 liters approx. The car should be firmly on e-brake!!!
4. reconnect the hose from radiator to the tranny and add ATF to the normal level.

I didn't replace filter this time, so I can't provide any extra info. In my case I had to disconnect the hose which goes to the vertical pipe on the tranny. I think, this procedure replaces about 80-90% of old ATF.

 

Where'd you purchase your RedLine from? Internet or local? Cost?

 

local, Toronto (actually Mississauga) at 16 CDN / 1 oz bottle + taxes. I just called Redline Customer service, got telephone numbers for my area distributors, then gave them a call asking for a quote. The price was up to 23 CDN for the same bottle from different places.
