Just went back through the thread, I have the 8-speed automatic (8L90), you apparently have a 10-speed, quantities I’d guess will be different, and probably other tidbits I mentioned. I don’t even know if your 10-speed has a side fill plug, should have noticed that sooner. Generally, I’d rather have too much than not enough. Even if you don’t spill any, there will still be some in the pan that won’t drain (cleaned up with rags), some in the filter, and some that will drip down from the transmission when the pan is off.
A few days ago there was a thread here on repair manuals, I looked my car up at the time, it was easy to use and quite comprehensive on the whole car. On the transmission fluid specifically, it had how much for a complete system flush, and how much for a pan removal and filter change. Would recommend looking into your specific car, might find other things that would be helpful. As I said, I had never done it before, I read and watched everything I could find multiple times before putting the car in the air. When I did though, I was pretty comfortable with the process, even though for me anyway, there’s always more to the actual doing it than what I read or watch. I’m glad I had a lot of rags and floor cover, could just be me.
