ID-ing My Auto Transmission and High Mileage Fluid Flush Strategy V70-XC70 1998

Nothing in the VIN to suggest different auto trans. You have a 4 speed, period.

I suggest doing the 'dump and fill', on a cold engine and tranny that has sat overnight. Buy some aluminum crush washers, same size as the engine oil drain. Then drain the tranny sump with the engine off! Measure the amount that came out -- or mark the level on the dipstick prior to the drain (it will appear to be overfull by a lot) -- and refill with fresh ATF. It will be about 3-4 quarts.

After starting the car, row through the gears once, put it in park and check the level again with the engine running. Use the cold side of the dipstick.
