Default Today I flushed out my brake fluid and transmission.

68,800 miles S60 2.5T
-Flushed out the brake fluid and used BMW DOT4 fluid.
-Drain and fill 6 qts of T-IV toyota ATF

Im getting 29mpg and thats from filling it up all the way, setting the trip to 0, and then driving till the gas light comes on and seeing how much I fill up/miles driven.

Not bad for a car this size!

Just an FYI the car holds 12 qts of trany fluid.. To do a proper fluid drain/fill is great to use the top port on the radiator .. Pull 2 qts and put 2 in threw then trany dip stick..

Yup I'm aware of the 12 qts.
All I did was drain/fill twice after driving around for one day. My car was on ramps so only exactly 3qts came out each time. I plan on doing yet another drain/fill this weekend so that will be 9qts. I bought 15qts total so every weekend I'm plan on doing it.
