Ummm, unless you have a really well supplied home shop>>>
W/ lift and vacumn draw assembly, you will need to get this done professionally. Towing may be in order here.
BTW, oil drain is very close to the oil filter/cooler. At least on my 2.8 it is.
Good luck!

There isnt one
It must be pumped up and over an overflow tube, after being run trough the gears, with the tranny at a specific temperature range.
To do this you must run the car on a lift with most of the fluid in it, then top it off.
Its quite involved for a home job.
bear in mind it requires pretty specific ATF too - factory only or European Esso synthetic (whcih is what the factory stuff is).
