Drained transmission fluid by accident

Yep
Not only can a caveman do it a woman can too
Easy Peasy

 

They are going to flush and fill. You take off the cooler line and drain it all out. Then refill and check at temperature. That normally is expensive

 

Beer bong it back in there and keep drinking.

 

Teach them and they’ll learn, and appreciate it too

 

OP: youre not the only one, my buddy did the same, but worse, drained trans, overfilled engine oil, and drove like 30 miles to work. Ive made some poor decisions after drinking, so i get it. Good luck and i bet youre the wiser for next time

 

Yes and Cavewomen too!

 

Sweet
Thats awesome to see!!!

 

Thanks!

did he mess up his transmission?

 

Well at least it's just a Tacoma. My buddy did that to his F355, cost him $700 & a tow to get it done properly. Luckily no damage was done. I still make fun of him to this day for that.

 

Best line ever.

 

I've done dumber things. OP is ok in my book.

 

It is a closed system in the fact it is pressurized and not "open" to atmosphere. Opposite of open is closed lol.
Everyone thinks there is no dipstick because of some nefarious reasoning, but the reality is a pressurized system or "closed loop" will force fluid into passages and allows for a much cleaner internal design.

 

Yeah, and then expect Toyota to cover it under warranty.

 

How would anyone blame toyota for draining the trans fluid by accident?

 

Surprisingly he didnt. He said it was acting a little funny, haha, but all is well. Everyone makes mistakes just brush it off!

 

A lot of people never make mistakes and it's never their fault.
Some guys here would be blaming and wanting to sue Toyota for not labeling the drain plugs or some such horseshit.
Personal responsibility is a concept lost on some of the newer generations of humans.

 

So you are saying that both holes are that close together ? That’s sex Ed 101...
yes nailed it !

 

Ok, the point I was trying to make is that he should be able to add back what he drained and call it a day.
