Not a job I've done myself but as I understand it there is a drain plug on the bottom of the box, I guess you just undo it and let the transmission fluid drain out.

To refill, I remember seeing something in the manual that says you pour new fluid down the dip stick tube.

I'm also fairly sure you can buy a kit for the auto box which supplies a new filter but this means taking the sump off the box.

Hope that helps ya.

Yes, definately refill through eh dipstick tube. If you don't know how long the fluids been in there, its worth doing the filter too. You will need to remove the sump pan to do that.
