 yup, changed mine with redline mt90 synthetic fluid. just drain it out, remove the reverse light sensor in the engine bay to pour in the new fluid. keep the top bolt on the tranny open, its to make sure its not overfilled. use a long funnel too, its kinda hard to do it with a shorter one. there should be a diy on it so look through the section. im pretty sure that it would work for the auto (i think)

So what if my girlfriend drives a Supra, I'm more sexier than she is! =)

 Nope, the process is different for manuals... I don't think anyone's done a DIY for an ATF change :o

 ATF is easy; I have done it many times. Get your self a nice filter to replace your old one. Drain the oil using the drain plug on the pan and then unbolt the trans pan. Remove bolts holding down the filter, replace filter and follow the reverse procedures. Filter kit comes with a new pan gasket an do-ring for the filter. Add some nice ENEOS transmission fluid. ENEOS in stock ready to ship.

32,000 miles and you want to change the AT fluid? You don't need to.

You should look into this when you're closer to 100,000 miles.
