Replaced my ATF - Toyota Yaris Forums

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.
