In today's video tutorial, we will discover the steps to change the automatic transmission fluid on the Citroen Saxo with a 1.4 petrol engine. First, lift the vehicle and locate the transmission fluid drain bolt; use an Allen key to unscrew it, allowing the fluid to drain into a container for about ten minutes.

At this point, screw the bolt back in, replacing the gasket, and pour the new transmission fluid through the fill hole located in the engine bay, below and next to the intake hose, using the correct fluid grade.
