Hello
I think the torque converter plug was discontinued around 2002.

Re: converter

You don't....

There are different philosophies, but what "I" do is:

Drain the 4.5 liters from the pan, change the Filter.

After 2,000 Miles, or so? REPEAT!!

I do this at 30,000 Mile Intervals.

The other option is to do an involved procedure, requiring 14 liters of fluid, Un-Hooking the Oil Lines, running the engine with the lines un-hooked, pumping out Liters of ATF...
