I believe the trans would have to have a low pressure vacuum in order to get most fluid out properly. and then fill until level with proper indicator mark.

Yes, this is standard for the Canadian service schedule. Why it's different compared to the US one that doesn't have any replacement schedule at all is a total mystery as much of the climate is the same throughout the northern half of the US.

I think Toyota charged me all of 60 odd dollars to drain and fill. I'm sure it was cheap partially because when you drain it only a small amount actually gets put back in.

I did mine early and will continue to do it every couple of years because it's cheap and certainly can't hurt.
