Best thing to do is fill the transmission fluid with a bit extra. Run the engine for about a less then 2 minutes, open the allen key and let it drain off to a trickle and close it back up.

Default Transmission fluid drained

Does anyone know how much transmission fluid can be drained by jacking up the front end and dropping the pan?

It varies with the amount that gets released with every car, some will say 2-4 quarts get drained

But I wouldnt trust that, as these cars are sensitive to fluid levels. Follow this procedure on this IS350, but its the same as our cars.
