5 quarts??

2006 Prerunner and 4x4 w/V6 engine, 5.2 qts with filter change, according to the manual.

 

That's what the book calls for, but not what everybody puts in.

There was a thread somewhere with owners saying what they put in, pretty sure that's where I got 5.5.

I always did that amount, always read perfect on the stick.

 

Krazie!

 

That's the transmission pan

 

This.

 

Haha hahaha gdamnit

 

I'm pretty sure that is the transmission.....

You aren't the first nor will you be the last...

 

Easy fix, refill the transmission and then change your engine oil.

On the bright side Ill have clean fluids all around!

 

We can rebuild.

My lord why does this keep happening. I am ashamed for you.

 

At least you didn't pour the transmission fluid into the radiator overflow tank as some have done. Just because it was pink too.

You didn't did you?

 

Again!

 

Ouch. I dont feel so bad anymore.

 

I think it happens twice a year.

You're in good company. Haha. Just don't drive around with an empty trans.

 

I accidentally drained the wrong plug yes, but I know what and where my radiator fill cap is haha

 

Well it's not empty, but I bet it doesn't shift quite right. The pan hold about 4qts and a full refill is like 13qts

 

Well on that note, this has been a great first thread for me. Way to make an entrance eh?
