It’s important to preserve your car as it is consider as the most valuable properties used in our day to day activities.  The transmission system of your car must be serviced once in a month and it should be properly maintained to prevent the car problems. If it is not retained, you will face some problems that lead to change your new transmission system.  It’s easy to flush your transmission by yourself with transmission flush machine.

Get the car for a drive, and go on driving until the car gets to normal operating temperature.

First, jack the front end up of the car using jack stand and try to remove the transmission plug.
Drain the fluid from the transmission and reinstall it.

Find the transmission cooler line which is connected to the radiator. Commonly you can see these connections at the bottom of the radiator, remove the connections and place it in 5 gallon bucket under it.

Crank up the transmission so that the fluid comes out and falls in the placed bucket. Stop the car after the fluid comes out. Reinstall the connection to the radiator. Add fluid slowly into the transmission with the funnel. After you full fill the fluid upto three quantities then again strat crank the car and keep the engine at rest. Take the jack stands and go for another drive. Check everything for leaks.
