My qx has 90 something thousand miles. I should already have done the transmission fluid change (plan to use royal purple max atf). But i heard doing the timing belt involves removing the radiator, atf oil cooler, i dont want my freshly changed fluid to all spill out. What do you think? should i change the fluid after the timing/ water pump ?

When you disconnect the trans cooler lines from the radiator, just jam a 3/8" bolt in the end of each one. That will keep any trans fluid from being lost. Well, except for a few drops.
