transmission drain and refill

Topic starter

I am planning on doing a transmission drain and refill on a 2016 toyota rav4 with 45000 miles.  Can anyone tell me about how many quarts of fluid will drain out so I know how much new fluid to buy?

just buy 3 gallon jugs and return what you don't use.

  • Check your owners manual , I've.only  seen how much it takes  to flush it, which is ten quarts.  But don't flush it

I’ve seen videos of Scotty, and over mechanics, use a huge measuring bucket to measure how much transmission fluid comes out each time you drain. You fill the exact amount back in. Repeat the process until your trans fluid is a bright cherry red. 

if this is incorrect please tell me. 


So if you want to do multiple times should you wait for the transmission to be cool for a bit then start again?


I don’t know. Good question to post though.
