Step 8: Start the engine and idle for 5 minutes ![]() If you are using the dipstick plug, refill even at a lower rate If there is temperature difference between the drained oil ( hot) and refill oil ( cold) refill 10-15% less volume ( to account for expansion of oil). Step 7: Refill the exact amount of oil that was drained slowly and steadily. For swift, you can remove the engine coolant reservoir by pulling it towards you ( top) to make more room to access the dipstick (in my case, I had to save off 0.5 mm of plastic from the bottom side to fit it) You may want to do some jugad to make the bottom end as a tight fit so that oil doesn't spill. ![]() Use the funnels other end to make a tight fit at the end. I couldn't find a fill plug, so.I used the dipstick hole to refill. Step 6: Find the fill plug or ATF dipstick. No need to use a spanner to tighten it, just tighten with your hand Step 5: put the bolt back in its position. (Sorry I havent done any photos of steps 2-4 - but it is exactly like how the engine oil is drained from oil sump) Measure exactly how much oil was drained. This will help you to locate any metallic particles in the oil Make sure that the bucket or pan is very very clean. ![]() Step 3: Place a bucket or oil pan under the oil drain bolt. Use a spanner/Ratchet to loosen the bolt. Step 2: Transmission oil sump is on the right side of engine ( when looking at the car from the front of car). Since I have a pair of car ramps, I used them. Step 1: Raise the car so that we get enough space to work underneath the car. If my calculations are correct, I should have around 1L of old oil and 4.6L of new oil within AT at end end of 4th iteration. So my plan was to drain the sump, refill exact amount of new oil run the car for few minutes for the new oil to mix with the old oil and repeat this process 3 more times since I have 8L fluid with me. The AT sump holds around 2L of oil, where as the car manual states 5.6L capacity for ATF.
