I am trying to know which transmission hose is the return hose to the 5AT transmission , to get all the trapped AT fluid changed .---
468747

the longer hose : 45520D*B / 45520AJ080 or shorter hose : 45520C*B / 45520AJ090 ?
I can't find anywhere that even mentions which one is which !

Nope , On my 3.6 , 5AT the "radiator - return - back - to - tranny " hose turned out to be the shorter hose on the driver's side of the car , connection #4 instead of #5 , - picture caption above was a lie !
May not actually matter though if you think about it , as long as you get the trans . fluid through the radiator one direction or another ...but still want to flush it all , including what's in the radiator .
