Hi all since i have my car on the jack i was going to change my tranny fluid. Looked up everything, people are saying drain it and then fill it. According to the FSM manual these three bolt right (pics) drain on bottom 22mm socket, small 12mm square bolt and 14mm square bolt. This is what's holding me back, I try everything from socket to adjustable wrench, also with extension to try and turn it loose but neither one would loosen. Am i loosing the right ones or what, is there another way to get this loosen. Please help thanks.

The 22mm and the lower 12mm square are both drain plugs. You fill from the larger square plug. I just open them using a regular old C wrench.

1) Open fill port first (allows oil to drain smoothly when the drains are open)
2) Open both drain ports
3) Allow to drain completely
4) Close both drain ports
5) Fill tranny with 75w-90 to bottom edge of fill port (approximately 2.6 quarts)
6) Close fill port

If the plugs won't come out, try PB blaster (or something similar) then man up.

Heat will also help, but you must be very careful!

They were tough, but I got them off with vice grips.
