How much dose it cost to change transmission oil?

i have a 92 toyota camry. i need to change transmission oil and was wondering how much it would cost me....? hopefully not too much.....How much dose it cost to change transmission oil?
Somewhere between $100 and $150. That is for a power flush. This will also change out the fluid in the torque converter. They will usually undo the transmission cooler lines and hook the machine in series with the cooler. The machine will be loaded with new fluid and you can actually see the old discolored come out and the new fluid going in. Once the fluid coming out turns reddish, then all of the fluid has been replaced and the cooling lines are reconnected and the topped off.








good luck with it.How much dose it cost to change transmission oil?
Automatic Transmission oil can cost as little as $1.50 per quart. What kind of AT do you have? Some ATs hold 7 to 10 quarts of AT Fluid. Some BMWs use a ';lifetime'; transmission fluid which costs $150 per quart. Some transmissions have a dip-stick to measure the AT Fluid level. You should make sure the car is on level ground, and that the existing AT Fluid is warmed up to at least 120 degrees F. With the engine running, you can add 1/2 quart of the appropriate AT Fluid until you see the level on the dipstick. Do not overfill. Many Auto Transmissions require that you change a filter screen in the AT Pan every 50,000 miles. A filter and 10 quarts of AT Fluid can cost $200. You should look in your Owner's Manual for complete instructions on your peculiar car.
Various auto shops have various prices. You're best bet is to go to a shop that specializes in transmissions. They usually offer a special deal wherein they check the transmission of any faults, change the oil, and change the filter and give a transmission tune-up for a one package fee. They are usually the best deal. Last time I had it done, it cost me $97.90. Good Luck.
why do you need to change it ??? has it done over 100k miles or is there a transmission problem, when the oil is changed it is only the oil in the sump that is changed, most of the oil is in the torque converter so if you do it yourself you will only be able to change the sump oil as they do in a garage
It matters on where you go to get it done.
depends..........
