P.S--- i am chaning my oil filter...and my tranny filter...just FYI
 
start out with 4 quarts, check the level with the dipstick, and add as needed

as long as your transmission fluid is of the right class (dexron iii) or whatever it maybe be you will be ok....check with your owners manual for this information, and also for the amount...just dont buy generic
