Hi

Today my car has 5000 Kms service, so I decide to do oil change by myself ( car has no warranty anyway ), but instead of engine sump, i accident undue the automatic transmission plug , when i realize the mistake , about 2 litters of auto trans fluid has been flushed out . I want to ask what type of auto fluid to buy as there are many types selling at supercheap auto. Thank for your help.

BTW my car is camry 4 cyls 2004 .

Regards

meh... at least u learnt sumthin n serviced u'r transmission lol

I've learn that the oil sump plug is just 17mm or 14 mm standard bolt, anything that require an Allen key is not the plug for oil sump, but it is good to know and service the trans ( acidentally ) at the same time :)

Wow, 5000km on a three year old car! I do that distance in about 7 weeks. Off topic I know but you've already been answered to :)
