The process is the same in both vehicles so it should be pretty straight forward.

I am attaching the info from the manual below.

However, if you are changing this with another used part then I would suggest flushing the fluid.

Here is a guide that will show how to do that:

Below is the info from the manual.

Please let us know if you need more info. Thanks
