well on the manual tranny, you need a 10mm and 14mm allen wrench to remove the plugs......it takes something like 3 3/8qts or so of fluid...its listed in the owners manual.

the hardest part is gettin the plugs out.......or finding a 14mm allen wrench or allen wrench socket lol

For automatic transmissions, it uses a 19mm bolt. Its just a simple drain and fill. It should be around 4 quarts, but put it the same amount that you remove.
