Regularly checking the fluid level and condition is key—if you notice any burnt smell or a dark, gritty appearance, it’s a sign it’s time for a change. Additionally, symptoms like slipping gears, delayed shifting, or strange noises while shifting can all indicate that your ATF might be on its last legs.

Beyond just the transmission fluid itself, you might need a fluid transfer pump to help you get the old fluid out and the new fluid in without a mess. A funnel with a long neck can also be a lifesaver for precision pouring. While you’re at it, consider grabbing a transmission filter and gasket if it’s time for a full fluid exchange—they’re crucial for keeping your system running smoothly. Don’t forget your safety gear, too; gloves are a must for protection from chemicals, and safety goggles can help shield your eyes from any unexpected splashes. Keeping your workspace clean and organized will also help prevent accidents, so make sure you’ve got a reliable trash bag on hand for any used materials. Happy DIYing!
