Re: changing tranny fluid and filter
Straight fluid and filter change is just like any other car. I used a Fram kit last time. It has two filters and the gasket. Clean both sealing surfaces good(acetone), and to make sure of no leaks, I used Permatex OEM Sensor Safe RTV lightly on both sides of the gasket. It has worked great. Don't over tighten the pan bolts but remember to snug them after a few weeks. Save several dollars by getting ATF in one gallon jug. Check level hot, running in park. Don't be surprised if it does'nt even touch the dipstick cold and not running. Have fun!

your owners manual should tell you how much to put in. and I never put any sealant in there tranny fluid never leaked, but make sure you after you change everything a few weeks later tighten the bolts around the pan again. make sure none are loose.
