Changing the AT fluid in a S60? S60 2001

I have been preparing to change out some of the fluid in my '01 S60 2.4T.
I could not find the drain plug so I bought a pump from a popular auction site.
With brass tubing and some small rubber tubing I adapted the pump suction hose to the diameter of the dipstick tube. The '01 needs the 3309 fluid and I got a case from Mobil via an on-line source.

I plan to suck out as much as possible, then add exactly the same amount of new stuff. Then drive it through all gears and repeat the process. I have only 64K miles but the fluid is noticeably darker than new fluid. I will have enough 3309 left over to do it again at 130 K. That might be another 8 years from now!
