Re: Auto Transmission Flush - Clarification on Technique Needed V70-XC70 1998AWD

I did mine a month ago using non-synth ATF, 13 quarts. You won't fill it fast enough via the fill tube to keep up with the pumped out quantity. It pumps out about 2 quarts in 20 seconds. Try to get that down the fill tube and you'll have a mess everywhere.

Now, my brick shifts smoother, especially the downshift from overdrive. I had 38K miles on mine when I did the change.

FYI, it's not clear in the Bay13 directioins, but the ATF pumps out of the upper hose into the cooler, so attach your drain hose to the upper hose, not the cooler fitting. I didn't break my clip either, but had a spare one and a spare O-ring too just in case.
