Gotta remember to do this for next time!

 

How many transmission drain plugs are there for the 2010 Ralliart??

 

3 or 2 on the bottom i believe. My 2011 only had 2. Easy to spot as they are black vs the bare metal casing.

 

Allen heads too can't miss them

 

I will be doing this for the first time as soon as my fluid and filter come in. My car doesn't sound as bad as yours was I have 52k miles but it does shift hard at times and a few other things you mentioned I figured this will help. Only thing is I don't know if it's already on here I didn't look through all the replys but what do you torque the drian bolts and filler bolt to??

 

25.8 +/- 3.5 ft lbs

 

don't like taking the bumper off. they never seem to go back on just right. everything else will be helpful when the time comes.

 

i see that some places selling the tcsst filters like SSP or Fred Beans online. they include the filter housing with the filter. is it necessary to change the housing or can you still use the oem one?

found the filter just for $37!

The one I got from SSP was just the filter and new O-ring.

 

After doing this today I learned a couple things like an idiot I got a drain bucket that wasn't deep at all and the fluid comes out too fast and it splashed everywhere!! So make sure you get one like he shows. Another thing is trying to get gallons of mineral oil is a pain you can only get it in small amounts at the hardware stores I had to order them even after calling a feed store. Besides that it was nice and smooth

 

Just changed mine this weekend. This filter had about 63k miles since it's last change and was surprising clean. Not much metal shavings or gunk, just really dirty fluid. The shifting difference is much more smooth. Night and day difference. Shout out to Dakota for his help!20140308_114006.jpg?t=1394400772

 

just so everyone knows SSP makes a tannys filter for under $40 bucks
