Does anyone know where and how to change? I have tried a search but nothing is coming up on the subject.

um..you wont find it in here i dont think..
your best bet will be the chiltons manual..and when you buy the tranny oil buy it from the dealer i been told that their fluid has something in it that other fluids dont and if u dont use theirs your tranny may go out. Its actually quite simple, jack up the car locate the drain plug(a bolt located in the middle of the tranny) drain it and let it drain for a while get your self one of those hoses that you would hook up to an oil bottle(bought mine at walmart) locate the ruber plug on the tranny (should be if u take off the battery windshield washer reservoir right under all that junk its facing the left tire) fill the tranny with fluid it takes a tad bit over 2 quarts you might want to fill it when the car is leveled on the ground.not lifted.
if you need any help let me know..
