Yes thank you, I have seen that video. I dont have the tubing or computer program to do a full change out, I would like to know if i can put the fluid i drained (into a clean never used oil drain pan) back into the transmission via the filter port once removed? (im going to strain fluids even tho it was clean) Just so i can get the car down the road to a auto shop that can do a full changeout of transmission fluid.

If you put the same amount back in that you drained it should be good for a trip to the shop.
