Changed MT-82 DCT Transmission Fluid with no curse words uttered.

[DarkMatterGrey]

I used a low profile jack (Harbor Freight) and pad (Amazon) to lift the front passenger tire onto a ramp (Rhino). Chocked both driver side wheels Had just enough room to loosen (and tighten) the fill plug with a short 8mm Allen socket (one of the auto part stores, O’Reilly’s maybe). Drained out about 2.7 quarts. Put in 2.7 (Rockauto) with a hand pump (Harbor Freight) from a quart soup container (Red House hot-n-sour in Scottsdale), which was the hardest part. Car is 1.5 years old with 10k miles. Old fluid was dark and cloudy compared to new, there was some glitter in the pan as expected. No magnets on the drain plug. The fluid was unexpectedly thin. Drove the car off the ramp.

Thanks. So what curse words were you thinking if you didn't utter them?

“Dogam futher mucking bun of a sitch.”

It was definitely a lot easier than I thought it would be. Especially for 61 year old chubby me.

Well, I've got a guy for that! I'm 78, and my days of crawling under, are over. Good on you for doing this! Great post as well! Glenn

Another old guy here but not working on a car and not uttering any swear words is nearly impossible to do.
