Default Trans fluid change on 2009 CRV

Hello. Question: I am an amateur wrench turner who has been using the following method for years when I change my trans fluid. First, I find out the total capacity of the tranny, converter included, then, I find out how much the pan itself holds. Next, I do some math. on these figures and figure out that if I just drain the pan X number of times, drive the car for about a week to allow the fluid in the pan and converter to mix, then repeat the process Y number of times, I will get Z % of the total fluid changed. For example, on my 2009 CRV, I have to change the fluid in the pan about 12 times to get about a 98 % total fluid change. The only drawback is the disposal of the 30 or so quarts of fluid when finished. I have had great luck with this system for a long, long time. Any comments or critiques greatly appreciated. Now for my question: Does anyone know if the CRV uses a transmission fluid filter and is the drain plug on the tranny accessible without the need to put the car on jack stands ? Diagrams would be much appreciated if possible; I believe someone sent me diagrams on the cabin filter for this vehicle which were invaluable. Thanks in advance for your response. AL
