*PLEASE READ THIS VIDEO DESCRIPTION AND THE COMMENT WE PINNED*
In this video, we show you how to drop the pan on your automatic transmission and replace the transmission filter bolted to the valve body. This job was done on a 3rd Generation Toyota 4runner with an A340F transmission but the steps we take and the techniques we employ would be similar to other make and model vehicles.

*Torque Specs*
Transmission Pan Bolts 65 inch pounds
Transmission Filter Bolts 88 inch pounds
Transmission Drain Pan Bolt 15 foot pounds


*PARTS*
*Transmission Filter #3533060030 (This is the right filter for a 2000 SR5 4x4 4runner. There are some differences with these filters based on the year and model so make sure you get the right filter for your transmission.)

*If you're interested in buying an OBDII reader that works with Android devices, here's what I got:

*And, if you go the Bluetooth reader route, buy this as well. It allows you to turn off the power to your reader so you don't have to pull it out every time. The reader constantly draws a small amount of power and could drain your battery if your truck sits for a long time.
