Just drain it per the instructions in the Service Manual, and refill also per the instructions. If I can do it on jackstands in the garage, anyone can. Posted on: 2012/10/23 11:33

I'd suggest Type FA which is still very much a current substitute but do first read the info about trans fluids in FAQ. Posted on: 2012/10/23 11:55

It was Type A that I was thinking of as unavailable - yes for sure Type F is readily available. Another mental lapse in my column. Posted on: 2012/10/23 15:17
