Default Anyone willing to lend a hand & tools?

I don't want to pay a 65-85 dollar shop charge for ~$20 transmission fluid

My garage is too small and I don't have jacks/stands/torque wrench.

All I can supply is the car, fluid, washers, and pump device.
Oh and I'm willing to donate booze or cash towards the cause

I have a stock height '04 S

Thanks

I have a jack, 4 stands and a regular ratcheting wrench but no knowledge of how to do this. Might be interested in supplying tools/help so I can learn how to do this myself.

Where are you located?

Its real easy to change the fluid. You will have a drain and fill plugs that need to be removed.

then drain fluid, plug up drain plug then fill til the fluid starts coming out of the fill hole, plug it up and your done.

The DIY write up here is excellent.

Yup I read the DIY and it's easier than an oil change (just just that today w/o a lift)

I just need some more tools & a better location for the transmission

I need to do my 30K too, which consists of transmission and differential fluid. Shall we do a mini mod day? I'm in the Cville/Chantilly area.
