The 2001 Toyota Corolla features a 1.8-liter 4-cylinder engine paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission, initially filled with 3.3 quarts of Dexron VI ATF fluid. It's recommended to perform a transmission flush and filter replacement every 30,000-50,000 miles. Fluid levels should be checked when the transmission reaches 120 degrees. To drain the transmission, place a drain pan under the vehicle, and remove the drain plug with a 13 mm socket while the engine is running. If the fluid appears dark or black, it indicates a need for a flush and replacement. Ensure the car is on a level surface for precise draining. Typically, the cost for a professional transmission flush on a Corolla ranges from $170 to $200, including parts and labor.
