2 of 17 7/27/2009 5:41 PM Different specs about the torqs and such.
3 of 17 7/27/2009 5:41 PM Start by jacking up the car and setting up everything.
4 of 17 7/27/2009 5:41 PM again, another 2 holes how-to
5 of 17 7/27/2009 5:41 PM A better picture of those 2 drain plugs.
6 of 17 7/27/2009 5:41 PM I started by the trans plug. Take your torq bar with the 21MM socket and sqeeze it out. Watc of oil will be pouring down.
7 of 17 7/27/2009 5:41 PM Take your 14MM and torq wrench, unbolt this plug out and let drain. At the point, you can re dipstick so it will be draining faster. I let both of them drain for a good 10 min.
8 of 17 7/27/2009 5:41 PM Since I was on jackstand only on the front, I jacked up the rear of the car and some more oil out, another maybe 2 min.
9 of 17 7/27/2009 5:41 PM Remove the oil pan and replace the 2 plugs.
10 of 17 7/27/2009 5:41 PM just a little view of those plugs. Foo_Blyat: Well, it says to change the washers so for those of us who want to be extra safe... Clutch side - 803926070 Oil Pan - 803916080
11 of 17 7/27/2009 5:41 PM insert the funel into the trans hole and fill it with your oil
12 of 17 7/27/2009 5:41 PM Check the level of your oil and you are done! I'm sorry, I couldn't get a better picture of the dip stick.
