DIY Transmission Fluid Change
I've searched around and couldn't find any good, detailed write-ups. Pictures would be awesome. This is my first time doing a transmission fluid change, and I'm kind of nervous about messing things up.
Any help would be appreciated.

BIG difference between the 5-speed and the 7-speed.
The latter fills AND drains from the same hole, and special tools are required. Quantity required is determined by temperature and determined by hooking up STAR system.
Get the service DVD.

Well I have a 2003 so the transmission fluid can be self serviced. The problem is, the service DVD only runs on Windows, and I'm on OSX. Are there any good book manuals?
