It'll only be a matter of time before baby boi will then start helping you! ![Biggthumpup](https://g35driver.com/forums/images/smilies/biggthumpup.gif)
You're welcome. I think that kit will work just fine, you can always re-use the pump for other things like the rear differential and/or brake reservoir

Thanks Jazzy.
IEMaestro, technically you can replace the fluid from the reservoir using the same method, but it will not replace it completely and won't get rid of the gunk that tend to develop at the end of the line (i.e. calipers), or solve any issues of having air in the line. You really should be doing this the proper way.

Did mine this morning in under 20 minutes with this fluid transfer pump I bought at Advance Auto Parts together with the Mobil 1 ATF. Recommend using the pump as it made the process very quick, siphoned the old fluid into an old 1/2 gallon milk jug. I used only one quart of ATF of the 2 purchased, the fluid looked clean/different enough not to want to uses the second. This is the easiest DYI that I've done to date.

Did this yesteday, with a fluid pump it was so quick an easy, I couldn't imagine paying someone to do this. I flushout and used 2 quarts of Dextron VI castrol. Keep in mind our cars need Dextron VI grade ATF, and the pictured Mobile 1 shown above meet minimum specs (although it may have on earlier G's).
I also replaced my clutch fluid too. It looked clean, but when I put a hose in to pump it out and got very dark (lots of sediment in there), now its clean all the time (used same fluid pump for that, except using DOT 4 brake fluid).
