Replaced my ATF
Last weekend I replaced the Automatic Transmission Fluid in my 2009 Yaris. I know it is supposed to last the life of my car, but I replaced it at 64k miles, and I'm glad I did.
Symptoms:
Cause: Probably something to do with HPDEs and Autocross(constant redliningParts:
Procedure
Results: No more shaking, and it shifts like a dream Last edited by markitect; 06-18-2013 at 03:22 PM. |

25, 550 MILES!

Great Write-Up!
Thanks for taking the time to post this DIY for a Trans. Fluid & Filter change - Very precise and well thought out. Draining & running new fluid through it twice before a final fill with the new filter and pan gasket must have made a BIG difference. It'll be a long time before I'll be doing this (I'm at 1,640 miles!) But I will most definitely do it down the road. Haven't done one of these in awhile, but it is easy and your instructions are fantastic for someone who wants to do this for the first time on their Yaris.
I did this transmission service on my 1972 Chevelle Convt. back in the 80's - so easy & so rewarding |

The manual says 8 ft*lb, for the filter, and 5.75 for pan. I just did it by feel from removing them.

A question. How close is the filter to the pan? The reason I ask is the previous owner put a bump in the pan, up to 5mm in one spot. I'm trying to decide if I need to replace the pan while doing the ATF service. |

Update:
I pulled the AT pan today. There was no need to replace the pan. Cosmetic damage only. I replaced the filter in the process. The filter is real, not just steel mesh that can be cleaned and reused. The surprises: The job was harder than I thought it would be due to low clearance and that hard plastic under engine protection that is partially in the way. Full gallon of ATF drained. More than I expected based on reading the forum here. The ATF, pan, and magnets were cleaner than I expected at 66,000 miles. I see that WS is the real deal and I think 100,000 miles is doable before first service. |
