I have a early 94 Maxima, transmission fluid looks good but hasn't been replaced in atleast 2yrs. I wanna do it this weekend, i found out there isn't a pan/filter to drop and replace, so... is all i have to do, just drain & refill a few times to clean the system? ...or should i get the system flushed.

NOTE: When i got car two yrs ago the fluid looked very clean so i left it alone. I have NO SERVICE HISTORY on this transmission so please consider that.

Also plan on fuel filter replacement this weekend and possible throttle body cleaning...

drop the drain plug and fill her up. easier than an oil change. do that as many times as you want(2 should be adequate).

Shop across the street from me says it's 1.5 hrs labor, hence, $90 labor....RAPE.Thanks for the confirmation and quick reply, you're appreciated.
