Vomit

Hola!

I want to perform both an engine oil change and a tranny fluid change on my C32. I jacked the car up, and was unsure where the two drains are located. . . (I searched the forum and found nothing)

Can anyone tell me where the oil drain and transmission drain plugs are located on the C32? There is a black plastic pan with a torx head bolt just aft of the removable black plastic underbody panels. Is that torx-head bolt in the black plastic pan the transmission fluid drain or the engine oil drain?

Thanks for the reply.

Based on the info/pictures, the torx head bolt seems to be the tranny pan drain. If I drain the four or so quarts of tranny oil out of the C32 pan, how do I refill it?


Regarding the C32 oil drain plug location, the links provided assume that I am using a suction device (I am not). Where is the oil drain plug located on the C32?

well technically your suppose to open the drain bolt, they just suction it out at dealership as well.

You drain the tranny fluid and refill how much you drained. Then drive the car about 7miles, with the car still on, measure the fluid level with the tranny dip stick and pour accordingly. It didnt need much more, but it did need a little bit more then what i drained.

I just completed a tranny oil flush today.
There are 6 T30 screws to undo. They all have a bracket to hold up the pan. When you drop the pan, you will need to fill approx. 4 litres of approved merc. tranny oil. Change the filter and rubber gasket too.
Note: there is a 5mm hex decoy! don't even attemp to unscrew.

You can also suction the engine oil out.
