Is it hard to change the Transmission fluid

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Can I do it my self? I know you can't change the radiator fluid by your self, what about the transmission fluid.
Thanks in advance

I know some tranny pans have an oil plug.. Mine doesn't...

If you change it yourself you will not get the fluid out of the Torque Converter.

That's what make the tranny flush nice. Plus the flush a I recall helps clean the tranny filter...

But for the $150 to get a flush with Mercon V I understand why you would do it yourself..

I believe all you need to do is to drop the pan.. but it can be messy..
