Automatic Transmission Fluid Change. This is the complete guide on how to change the transmission fluid in your car or truck! I give you valuable tips like tightening the bolts on the transmission valve body gasket so you get crisper shifts or using silicone on the rubber gasket to hold it in place.

    Just changed my transmission fluid and filter by following this video. At first, after buying all the things I needed I just sat there for an hour thinking of how much I was regretting this, and that I could have just paid someone to do it. Then I was under the car dreading the mess of transmission fluid but it wasn’t that bad. Pan wasn’t cooperating so I thought that all this for nothing, but eventually it gave out. Gasket was fused onto the pan, factory filter, cleaning was the part I hated the most but at the end there was a clean pan, new filter, all I had to do was cross the finish line and.... I did! Dammit, Chris, you didn’t have to make look so easy but thank you so much 🙏

I grew up in a house full of gear heads, and I started turning wrenches before I can even remember, but honestly I've learned more than a few new things watching these videos. There are plenty of people who didn't grow up restoring old cars, and the sheer amount of detail in EVERY SINGLE VIDEO is absolutely amazing. I'm looking forward to binge watching the rest of the videos you've dropped, and am excited for any new content you're gonna come up with. Thanks for reminding me why I love working on cars, my dude!

    I just want them to come off without causing problems. I once had a Chrysler with those horrible two piece lug nuts. That was a 1995 car. I wonder if they still use those things. I replaced all of mine with some cheap chrome plated solid ones for a dollar each that also looked better. I just made sure they had a set of 20 that all match before buying them. They even installed them too for that price. I would do it again if I had a car that uses lug nuts. I now have one that uses bolts and it does make putting a tire on a little more challenging. I wonder how many people who had the two piece lug nuts were frustrated with them. The problem with them is the the cap is thin metal and it sometimes deforms or comes off. It can make removing those lug nuts a huge pain. It is worse some times with alloy wheels. If you want to see a really grouchy person, it would be me after having problems removing those monstrosities from a car.

    Fabulous video! I followed your 5 step process and had total success! My truck is 2005 Ford Ranger and I didn't need a universal socket adapter because there was clearance for all 18 bolts. My filter did not have the "spout" on one side, but the new part was identical to the old one. The truck seemed to shift EASIER compared to before! The fluid removed was about 3.5 quarts and the color was similar to your middle variety...translucent brown with slight pink and no metal specks. The metal pan had a little metal on the magnet, but not much. Thank you Chris!...for saving me some $$$!

    I replaced the transmission fluid on my 2006 Hyundai Tiburon at 110k miles (121k now). At that point I only owned the car for around 6k miles, and was very unimpressed with the sport shifter, taking 2-3 seconds to shift between gears, so I decided to replace the fluid. Holy hell what a difference! the fresh fluid dropped my shifting times from 2-3 seconds all the way down to .25-.5 seconds! best thing I ever did for that car!

    This is an excellent description of how to do it. I am older and will not use ramps. I go to my competent mechanic, have him put the car on the lift and now I give the reason that I don't do the change. While the car is on the lift, I do what the insurance company doesn't want the customer to do. I have a list of inspection items, lubrication items (oh yes, you lubricate seals under the car or eventually have a big repair problem vs. a few bucks for lubricant). The tires are turned and inspected. I am inspecting every component. Your dealer mechanic and even your trusty local guy will not the same inspection that you want to do. It would be a PITA to do this with just ramps in the driveway. And remember. When you do city driving, short hops, start and stops, you are working the transmission much harder than driving on the open road. If your manual says change the fluid every 40,000 miles and you are highway driving the average mileage, that is every 2-3 years. You have about the same time interval with hard, in city, lower mileage driving.

On the bmw's that's impossible. Bmw tells the owners the transmission oil holds the entire life of the car 😂. 150'000 km is their definition of lifetime 🤷🏿‍♂️

    Suggestion: Instead of making a huge mess with the oil dripping out of the pan, use suction pump to remove most of the fluid from the dipstick hole. Stick your plastic tube into the dipstick hole and start your suction pump. Remove most of your fluid that way. After that remove your entire pan without any fluid dripping. There will be very small amount of fluid remaining.

    great instruction. On my truck I used a fluid extractor down the dipstick tube to remove the fluid from the pan before dropping it, made it a lot less messy. Then after the initial change out I drove the truck for a week and removed the fluid again through the dipstick, adding new. I did this one more time. In this way I think I replaced all 10 quarts of old fluid with new. An extractor is handy to have on this job.
