3. If the transmission oil is dirty, remove the drain plug and drain the oil.
4. Install the drain plug with a new gasket and fill the transmission oil to the appropriate level.
Note: The drain plug gasket must be replaced every time the oil is changed.
5. Install the filler plug with a new gasket.
