I just disconnected the hose from the drivers side of the radiator and into a 1 gallon milk jug. Start the car for approx 5-10 seconds which will drain 1-2 quarts out. Stop the car and then refill with 2 fresh quarts. Repeat that process until you see clean fluid coming out or you can just run 12-13 quarts through making sure to get out "exactly" the same amount you put in. Always a good idea to drive a bit and then recheck the level on the dipstick. This method also worked great on my "06" Titan. Much easier than an oil change...
I've driven for about a month now and the tranny is smooth as silk. Hope this helps.
