Transmission Service and Pan Upgrade on my $1500 Range Rover Sport (L320) - Episode 9

I bought a salvage 2006 Range Rover Sport for $1500 and got it back on the road! I found some leaking that looked like it might be coming from the transmission harness connector, so I figured it would be a good time to do a transmission service. Since the L320 Range Rover Sport factory transmission pan has a built in filter and that can't be fit in without removing the exhaust and a cross member, we're upgrading to an aftermarket metal pan and separate filter! IMPORTANT NOTE: Be sure to cycle through the gears while warming up the transmission when you get ready to do the second part of the fill!
