That would depend on the transmission in the vehicle (they can be different with different models/options) and whether you are doing a "wet" or "dry" fill. A "dry" fill will use more fluid since you have to allow for fluid to fill the torque converter, which does not drain during a regular transmission fluid oil/filter change. The import thing is to not overfill! Always put a bit less in than called for, then run the car, putting transmission thru all the gears. Then recheck level and add as needed. Most vehicles require the transmission fluid check be done with the engine running. Check your owners manual for specifics.
I believe it is in the transmission. not 100% sure because I only know of the oil filters and drive a manual transmission truck. i do believe you have to remove the transmission though.
Not unless you are having problems now .you have a owners manual ,look in there and see when the manufacturer says that these fluids need to be changed ,You can look at the air filter and see if it needs to be changed .The transmission fluid should be good to go until around 60,000 miles or so .you need to check the level of the fluid on the dip stick ,just to make sure it is no leaking .
the transmission filter is located inside the transmission to replace it u must remove the transmission belly pan and drain out the fluid. U will need to buy a trans filter kit see photo below.
The filter for automatic transmisions is in the trans. You take the trans oil pan off while draining the fluid to change. Then once the pan is off you will see the filter, it should be replaced at the same time as changing the fluid.
IF YOU ARE NOT FAMILLIOR WITH IT TAKE IT TO A SHOP.There is one and it is a very messy job you have to take trans pan off to drain fluid (tricky) and the filter is under the pan.
