Two drain fill cycles will replace about 75% of the fluid.
Sadly, I now have a trans problem... it has developed a 5th slam at low loads (around 1500rpm or so) - this seems to be a direct result of the drain and fill.
Thinking about options - most likley is a mechatronic "rebuild" such as you are doing.

Yep, that's right - now looking into 3 fill cycles after consulting ChatGPT
