* Raise the car on jacks and place it on supports.
* Wear gloves to protect your hands.
2. Draining old oil:
* Find the drain plug at the bottom of the automatic transmission pan and place a tray under it to collect used oil.
* Loosen the plug with a 5mm hex and let the oil drain completely.
* Replace the drain plug with a new gasket.
3. Removing the automatic transmission pan:
* Loosen the bolts around the perimeter of the automatic transmission pan with a size 8 wrench.
* Carefully remove the pan, being careful not to spill any remaining oil.
* Remove the old automatic transmission filter.
4. Installing a new filter:
* Apply a small amount of new transmission oil to the O-ring of the new filter.
* Install the new filter in its place.
* Make sure it is completely and correctly installed.
5. Installing the automatic transmission pan:
* Clean the surface of the tray and its attachment points.
* Apply a new gasket to the pan.
* Place the pan in place and tighten the bolts with a 8mm wrench, evenly distributing the force.
6. Filling with new oil:
* Use a funnel to fill the automatic transmission with new oil.

7. Checking the oil level:
* Start the engine and move the automatic transmission selector to different positions, holding it in each position for a few seconds.
* Return to the park position and remove the automatic transmission oil level dipstick.
* Check the oil level on the dipstick. It should be between the “HOT” and “COLD” marks. If the level is too low, add more oil.
*If the level is too high, drain excess oil through the drain plug.
