Default jag atf v castrol multi import atf

I finally got around to replacing 3 qts of transmission fluid today.
I replaced 9 qts about 25000 miles ago with the castrol multi import fluid.
I got 6 qts of the genuine x type atf cheap a while back.
I drained and replaced the first 3 qts today and can feel quite a difference driving already.

The oil i drained was still perfectly clean in color and i do not abuse the transmission at all, so i was surprised at the difference.

I think i might bite the bullet and use the actual super expensive jaguar stuff in future.

Just letting y'all know

Default ATF fluid change

Iownme, I, looking to drain and change my own ATF fluid as well. Even with the jtis manual the pics are black and white and not very detailed. It's not very plain for a dummy like me as to where to drain AND refill the ATF fluid. Could you help me out with some good description and photos if you can. Thanks!

Polson. the fill plug is not too clear in that photograph. When you remove the battery box you will see 2 slightly different black plastic/rubber caps at the front left of where the battery box would be. The fill plug is the plug on the left...tug the rubber plug up and it will come off...it will probably be tight.
Regardless of how much fluid you remove from the drain plug, refill with 3 qts only

the drain plug is large..like 21 or 22 mm i think
