They fly into my backyard and sit in trees talking and sucking on nectar
That's the extent of my knowledge


TRANSMISSIN FLUID flush tool


ambiguous TRANSMISSION FLUID pumping instructions


There are no user changeable filters.


The FLUID looks pretty, spiralling down the funnel extension

See the clear hose just pushed onto the trans cooler fitting against the green clip at the corner of the battery
connected to the line that comes from the BOTTOM of the TRANSMISSION

because that's where the FLUID is.



Do not concern yourself with where the line goes into the cooler
as you are using the line that comes from the BOTTOM
of the TRANSMISSION
because that's where the FLUID lives.

There is no appreciable pressure when pumping
so you don't need to weld it on.

With the cooler disconnected, FLUID will not squirt out
at 6000000psi into the neighbours eye, as a matter of fact
post drips at disconnection, none will come out at all.

I poked the expulsion hose through the headlight hole to secure it and for extra length.

For those that have followed the TRANS FLUID saga the world over
"Look Ma no marks!"



Just replace exactly what you have removed, as the FLUID level is critical
as FLUID is generally checked too cold with resulting level too low
resulting in probable clunks and bunks.

This is the only TRANSMISSION FLUID flush method!
unless you have dry joints and need them resoldered

THE DIPSTICK TUBE IS THE ONLY FILLER TUBE.
if you can find it

any attempt at gaining access to the TRANSMISSION for faster FLUID ingess will be FUTILE

because it's NOT gearbox oil

There is no requirement to reset transmission with Vida
unless you have fault codes


There is absolutely no requirement to do a tranny relearn post fluid pump

The only way to do it. "Because you must."
