I'm not positive, I didn't read it anywhere, but every other transmission I've done. We always make sure the vehicle is level before you check the flow, or drip from the Transmission. And Probably a good idea to torque if drain plug back in. And lastly probably a good idea to use the internal temperature of the transmition. Otherwise, I think He did a great job, thank you Sir.

Thanks for your kind input. ( rare now days ) in the video I explain there is no dip stick. And yes in the video I use a laser to check temp. And the width of the pan is small so there is no much oil still in there even tho I jack it up. I measured and put back in what I took out. Then made sure when I put oil in it seeped out the drain plug to top off your oil. You'll still have oil in your torque convertor. But if you keep changing your trans. Oil regularly, that old oil will eventually be good oil. But if you want it level, jack up the back. I have done it this way (like i show in the video )and so far it's shifting great . I have put about 2k and it's shifting better then when I got it. The again. Check out my other videos.

Great comprehensive instructive video. Nice and calm with no stress. Scotty ought to take a leaf out of your book.

I think I saw one other commenter say this but you don’t have to align the hole on the fill bolt and the hose. If you look at the way it’s made, the mouth of the opening has a larger ID then where the threads are but the plug is not tapered. It’s got a straight wall so at the part of the plug closest to the head, where the hole in it is, there will be space around the plug allowing for vent and flow. Make sense? Great video. Very clear and concise. You remind me of back in the day when guys took the time to show respect to the profession and do it right. I’ll check out some more of your stuff cause I like your style.

I like your video, I don't even remove the stuff on top because I don't use the above fill plug. I do a drain and fill every 30,000. I just drain it, clean the magnet bolt, measure it and pump the new fluid into the level port in the front of the transmission so all access needed is just from below. Also doing a drain and fill by using the top plug n overflow to measure then the car needs to be jacked up level. Just being jacked up in front will overfull it by about a 1/2 quart, and the engine can run with overflow club removed to help take in the maximum amount. I run it while I'm pumping it into the same port.

I used the great info in this video to change the trans fluid on my 2013 Optima Hybrid. The trans looks the same only problem is an electrical junction box sits right over the fill hole requiring me to us a pump to replace the fluid and having a very difficult time removing and replacing the filler cap. The tip about aligning the hole in the fill cap was great otherwise I would have missed that!!

@ebunnes

5 ай бұрын

I have a 2019 optima plug-in (european model) and I think these hybrids have another fill plug located closer to the exhaust side of the engine. That plug is perfectly accessible with a socket wrench. The reason for this extra fill hole would be exactly that the "original" breather plug location is blocked by the high voltage stuff as you described.

Kia is phenomenal. I'd buy another one.

If you want to change your filter every time you change your fluid that's up to you. I'm going to change mine every other fluid change. For a transmission filter change there are other sites you can find, that will show you how to do that. It takes more tools and time. But do able. I will do mine in the late spring, and do a video. As far as the trans. Fluid. You'll never get all the fluid out of your trans. There is a good amount in your torque converter. So that's why it's important you change your fluid regularly so you don't have "old fluid in there". But that's up to your confidence level and how many miles you drive and how hard you drive. The fluid is approved for kia's. So it's the same oil theoretically. I have never had a problem with this fluid. If anything it shifts better. Thanks for stopping by.

So I started the Engine and ran about 15 minutes. It is warm the ATF. So I did unplugged the Level plug and warm ATF is drained a little bit, so level of ATF is right.

So, did it take 3 1/2 quarts of the fluid?

What about eith the manual version of the 2016 kia soul, are there any differences? What about the part where you put the car in drive 3 times?

This info is for automatic transmission only. . Thanks for stopping by.

my yellow engine light went on at 60,000 miles, tried all the normal stuff and wondered is there a sensor that tells that the trans fluid needs changed ? hope this fluid change helps. tried the gas cap taken off and re tighten , checked oil level , and disconnected battery and re installed and light still on ,Thanks mary c

take it to a auto parts store they will usually check the codes and tell you what is going on. Good luck

One of the best videos I've seen on the internet by far! Quick question, what about having the car level when you fill and drain it? From what I understand it has to be perfectly level to get the proper amount in the transmission. Is that correct?

Well for me it wasn't a problem. I have been asked this questions a few times. The angle is minut. I have done this twice now and haven't had a problem. But keep in mind the ramps I used weren't very high.. but it's up to you. So if the bothers you, you can jack up the back. Or do it on a unlevel driveway. Make sure you have your tires blocked good..thanks for your input.

thank you!

do you happen to know if there is enough space in the fill tube to put a tube down in so i can pump how tranny fluid. that is the process i do now with my dodge caravan. i want to buy a soul and remove a quart every 5000 miles or so and refill with a quart. i have done this for years to keep new detergents in the tranny fluid. the tube and hand pump i use is probably about 1/2 inch in diameter. maybe you saw it before, orange in color at walmart or other stores.

The transmission fluid you used says on it for high mileage. I have 50k on my Kia Forte. Will it be ok ?

How did you start the car without the battery and air filter attached? Did you have to re-assemble everything before running through the gears?

@notsofast2325

Connect the battery, Yes.

My owner's manual says my Soul will take two quarts of transaxle fluid. Should I just trust that volume and fill it with that amount? Also, mine is a manual transmission, so what's the best way to replicate your "park to drive" step?

There are gaskets on the Fill, Check, and Drain bolts. Are those single use gaskets?
