    What do you think about transmission "Flush" with syringe. Im thinking to suck the bottom fluid out from the draining hole with syringe. Would it be safe to do it that way? Is there something need to be conserned?

    How are you going to properly refill it?
    What if you can't get the fill plug off?
    Do you know what a "drain plug" is? Why would you have to suck it out with a syringe?
    How big is this syringe? It would need to be able to move 4L of ATF in one go, so you can get that drain plug back onto place without losing too much ATF. :(:eek:o_O:censored::sleep:(n)
