How to Change Transmission Fluid in a Car

Materials Needed:

  1. New transmission fluid
  2. Transmission fluid pump (if needed)
  3. Drain pan
  4. Funnel
  5. Wrench
  6. New transmission filter (optional)
  7. Rags or towels

Steps:

  1. Park the Car and Prepare the Tools
    Park the car on a flat surface and engage the parking brake. Turn off the engine and let the car cool down for a few minutes. Gather all the necessary tools and materials for the job.

  2. Lift the Car (if needed)
    If necessary, lift the front of the car using a jack and secure it with jack stands to create more space to work under the vehicle.

  3. Locate the Transmission Drain Plug
    Slide under the car and locate the transmission drain plug. You may need to refer to the owner’s manual or online guides if you’re unsure of its location.

  4. Drain the Old Transmission Fluid
    Place the drain pan under the transmission. Use a wrench to carefully loosen and remove the drain plug. Allow the fluid to drain completely into the pan. This process may take several minutes.

  5. Replace the Transmission Filter (optional)
    If your car has a transmission filter, remove the bolts or clips that hold it in place. Remove the old filter and replace it with a new one, ensuring it is properly aligned.

  6. Reinstall the Drain Plug
    Once the fluid has fully drained, clean the drain plug and reinstall it securely to prevent leaks.

  7. Add New Transmission Fluid
    Use a funnel to pour the new transmission fluid into the transmission. Refer to the owner’s manual to determine the correct type and amount of fluid required for your car. Ensure you don’t overfill the transmission.

  8. Check the Fluid Level
    Start the car and let the engine run for a few minutes. Shift through all the gears to allow the new fluid to circulate. Turn off the engine and check the fluid level using the dipstick (if your car has one). Add more fluid if necessary until it reaches the recommended level.

  9. Dispose of the Old Fluid
    Once the old fluid has been drained, dispose of it properly at a recycling center or an auto shop. Do not pour it down the drain or throw it away in the trash.

  10. Test the Transmission
    Take the car for a short drive to ensure the transmission is shifting smoothly. If you notice any issues, check the fluid level again or consult a mechanic.
