Can you tell me the shop time to drain and fill ATF, including dropping the pan and changing out the filter?

Also, can you send me the step by step with diagrams if possible?

Thanks,

Jon

Hi Jon,

This isn't a difficult job. It doesn't show me the hours. If I had to tell you how long, I would say give yourself about an hour.

As far as the directions are concerned, I attached what my manual provides below. Also, here is a link that explains how (in general) the service is done. I'm adding this because it provides pics of what you can expect to see. When you go to the link, tab down a bit to see filter replacement directions.

Let me know if this helps.

Take care,

Joe
