Is this hose the transmission to cooler hose?

Is this the hose that takes fluid FROM the tranny TO the cooler?
I want to change my fluid and I think you can drain it from this hose vs. getting under the car.

Into the radiator cooler at top, out at the bottom. There are plenty of write-ups on changing by connecting to a clear hose, starting car for a few seconds to drain some, shut off, then add via the trans dipstick and repeat until it comes out clean red.

The top hose on the radiator is the ATF returning to the AT. Replace the O-rings on the green clip.

This will remove some ATF but you're better off draining from the sump to get the dirty ATF drained out. Repeat that up to 4 times during 50 miles intervals and the ATF should be pink at the dipstick. The AT drain plug has a larger head but takes the same crush washer as the engine.
