I am sick of the clunky tranny on the Z. I am going to replace the fluid iwth Royal Purple. Can someone tell me the capacity of the transmission on a 6 spd Z 04? I need to know how many quarts to order

thanks

Just FYI, if you have 5AT be prepared to pay $199+ for tranny fluid swap at the dealer!!!!!! 11 qts of tranny fluid needed :OMG:

You can buy the tranny fluid for the 5AT by the gallon for $6 from the dealership...if you pay by the quart it costs more. I have two gallons in my garage.
