This Camry was one of the last good models before Toyota began cheapening some of the internal parts. For as good as the new Camry was with the look and handling, I remember how some of the door panels and skins, and some of the covers in the engine bay just seemed to be strangely skinnier than anything I had seen on an older Camry or Corolla.
FYI, the transmission has to be at a certain temp range, not at full operating temperature. Something like 95-115 degrees, unless you have the toyota tool for measuring it hot.
Miss the days when I could check my transmission fluid from opening the hood. It was back by the dash/back of engine. Now they make vehicles so you have to take it in just to have it checked.
If someone (mechanic) does your transmission. There is no way to tell if you need more fluid. I can check my oil before a big trip. But if my transmission for some reason needs more. I can't. Just to save a few bucks.

Back to basics. Love it. You're doing us a great service! What a great refresher.
Did u add transmission oil back after you drained some?
