Hello,
I bought a Haynes manual for my 2003 Corolla. It explains how to do change the automatic transaxle fluid and filter. It says the car should be warmed up to a normal temperature so the sludge and sediments come out better.
I'm concerned about getting burned. If the plug is similar to the oil pan, it won't come out all the way after the thread part is removed. I change the oil when the car is cold.
Can someone advice? Is there a way to minimize the risk? Maybe an extension to the rachet, gloves, etc. My concern is hot fluid falling along the gloves will ultimately burn me.
Thanks in advance.
