Good info. Thanks. I have done the change too and it is not too bad. I have added one step however. I have a hand held fluid transfer pump that I bought for servicing differential oils on my AWD vehicles. Now, instead of dropping a full pan of tranny oil, I first pump out the pan by running the pump's rubber intake tube down the dipstick tube to the pan, and pumping it out into a gallon container (leftover windshield fluid container) so I can measure what comes out.
This way I can just keep the process a little cleaner.
