1. Remove transmission oil pan (be careful oil will splash all over)
2. Remove all bolts slowly, so oil will drain slowly
3. Transmission oil pan gasket is reusable
4. Clean oil pan and let transmission oil drip then reinstall pan and gasket.(At the same time you can change the transmission oil filter.
5. Fill with transmission oil fluid (see specification) 4 liters Dexron4 fluid
6. Start the engine place transmission lever to park or neutral
7. At the same time remove plug (see pictures ) until fluid comes out the transmission plug hole. (replace the plug)
Hope it helps.

on some of the newer cars they dont have dipsticks they have a plug near the pan that you have to pull on the trans to check the fluid level and to fill it there is a cap hidden on top of the trans by all the stuff you have to try to bend a funnel around to get in it. dont you love the engineers

You need to raise the vehicle and start it. Remove the plug near where the passenger side driveshaft comes out. The head of the plug is 7/16. Trans fluid will stream out of the hole when the engine is running when the transmission is full, If fluid doesn't run out, fill the trans until fluid runs out. The fill cap is red and it is on top under and around the air cleaner box. If you need more help let me know.

There is a plug located on top of the transmission under the brake master cylinder. It is held in place by a bolt on the side of the transmission near the firewall. Remove the bolt, then remove the plug. Fill it until the fluid comes out of the hole.

on most cars that i have serviced the trans. if the trans has a dipstick tube. you can fill it from there. look for a plug that has a square hole (like a 1/2" ratchet would fit into) or the plug maybe a square head or even a bolt shaped plug. the drain could be on the side of the trans or the bottom. get yourself a Haynes manual #87020 at your local auto parts store or online
