Default Re: How To - Transmission Filter/Fluid Replace

Going to get my car from the stealership tomorrow. They told me that a service is only dropping the pan, I however, asked for a flush.
Which means 8.5 qts, not 3 qts. >:/
I'm taking dad w/ me, need a ride and maybe they will take me more seriously since I am a 'kid'. I'm going to ask for the money back.
Because I am extremely disatisfied that I asked for a full flush and they only took 3 out and put 3 back in.
Not what I asked for.
They then proceeded to tell me that they would need 15 qts. of fluid to do a complete flush. This doesn't make sense at all!
I am going to drive my car a couple hours away to get it fixed right. My friend is an an automotive vocational through school and she is going to do it.

ANYWAY, I found the specs on the AMSOIL:
AMSOIL ATF - has an expected fluid life of three times manufactures!

MB 236.1, 236.2, 236.5, 236.6, 236.7, 236.9 & 236.10

Out of the factory, the car has MB rating, 236.10, correct? So it is safe to drive with factory fluid and the 3 qts. of new fluid they put in it. Correct?
