Hi Phil and Ed,
Just a quick note to let you know that I've completed my first transmission drain and fill last night. It took me a few minutes to locate the 24mm transmission drain plug on my 2000 9-5 SE 6 cylinder. But once I found it, it was smooth sailing. As others have mentioned, I drained between 3 and 4 quarts.
I also snagged the turkey baster from the kitchen for permanent residence in the garage. It worked really well to extract the steering fluid from the reservoir (thanks again for the tip - I can't remember the last time we actually used it in the kitchen).
I plan to perform 4 trans drain and fills as well as four steering fluid exchanges. That should get things in a lot better shape. Then I'll dump the coolant. I'm going to have a lot of fluid to take to the next community collection day :>
Thanks again for all your encouragement and help.
Regards,
Greg Bender
