Every video I look up on changing the transmission fluid is showing a tray being removed and an external filter (similar to an oil filter) and an internal filter.
I went to the parts store yesterday and purchased the internal filter, came in a box.
They said they didn't have the external filter but that didn't necessarily mean the truck did or did not have one.
So I went to look under the truck and I swear I couldn't see neither anything close to the type of tray being removed in the videos nor a transmission fluid filter.
But I figure the tray has to be there since the parts store sold me an internal filter based on year/make/model/engine.
What I did see was what appeared to be a drain bolt on the bottom of the transmission as well as what appeared to be a fill plug on the driver's side of the transmission.
Has anyone changed the transmission fluid in a Generation 3 (2006) RAM 1500 ST Regular cab 3.7L V6 RWD and if so, what is the process?
In other words is it drain and refill like it appears or did I miss the tray?
