Hi,
I'm going to attempt to drain and refill the transmission oil of my '00 S40. The owner's manualy doesn't say how much oil it holds, but from the instructions I read in a previous thread, I'm thinking 3-4 quarts. Is this correct? I am going to skip the flush/bleed steps. So what I plan is this:

1) put front wheels on rhino ramps to lift front end.
2) remove transmission oil drain plug and let as much oil drain.
3) add 3 quarts of new oil.
4) take car off ramps so it's level.
5) check oil level.
6) add oil as necessary until it's at the right level.

Does this sound good?

thanks,
David
