5speed or at? the tranny can be warm/hot or cold. the fluid will drain better if its warm though. very easy to do

Warm fluid usually flows better. Just get under the car and take out the drain bolt on the transmission. What I usually do is let it drain untill its just dripping and pour some in to kind of flush it and make sure it's clean. Then just top off untill it's up to the filler bolt. Works every time.
