do you have a standard or automatic? if it's a standard, remove the fill plug on the side, (make sure you do this first, if the fill plug is seized and you drain the oil you're going to have a tough time refilling it) then the drain plug on the bottom, let the oil drain out, replace the drain plug and then use a suction gun or something similar to put 1.2 quarts of MTL in, if you're not sure if it's full, just keep adding it until it starts to leak out of the fill hole and plug it. if it's an automatic, don't even touch it unless you're already having transmission problems, changing the fluid has been known to cause problems
Thanks for the quick reply! I have a standard so I'll be following your instructions
