A tranny flush is the first thing I did to my car when I got it, and Im a MT. When I read VelociPaola's post I was like "WTF?!?!? we have a tranny oil dip stick?!, Shit and I was under the car getting all greasy..." I assumed I didnt know about it since you are pretty much OG 2gnter, but even the best of us mess up some times
Anywho, back to the OP: Tranny flushes are easy peasy! You can buy this suction device at autozone for a few bucks if you are extramely picky, otherwise there is a bolt on the bottom of the housing that you can remove and the fluid will pour out. Now, because of the position of the plug and shape of the housing NOT ALL the oil will drain, that is why you MAY want to use the contraption I mentioned (I didn't). Now for the hard part, the filling of the fluid. I had to remove the air intake box, CAI or SRI, (depending on what you may have) battery and battery holder. And thats the end of the first part of the complicated task. Now just look for a small rubber plug that faces the drives side wheel, and pull it out (its going to be hard but do it by hand to prevent breaking it!) If your tranny was as filthy as mine, I recommend taking a rag and wiping it down (do this for the draining bolt also for your own benefit) now insert a flexible funnel or a funel with a hose into the newly open filling hole, and pour the fluid in. Fill untill the fluid level reaches the bottom of the hole to prevent over flow. Voila, your done with the "tranny flush". All you have to do now is put back all the stuff you removed initially.
Hope that helps, if not buy a Haynes/Chillton's manual, thats how I got through mine.
P.S. All you will need are metric wrenches/ sockets, and I think maybe screwdrivers. Easy enough, you can do it bro!
