Will the transmission flush kit from ipd work with my 2000 s70? How often should the filter be changed?

Transmission Filter Change S70

I'm pretty sure the s70 is the same as the 850 so yes the IPD kit will work but you can also just use about 4 ft of 1/2" ID clear vinyl tubing from Home Depot for a $1.00 and an empty milk jug marked in qts to receive the old fluid. You probably should have a spare tranny hose clip (I never do) in case you break the old one but if you're careful that shouldn't be a problem. Snap ring pliers work well for opening the clip w/o breaking it but you can use needle nose in a pinch. Very easy procedure that you can do in < 30 mins w/o jacking the car or getting dirty. No need to change your filter as it doesn't have one.
