well in any manual FR (real wheel drive) car i just use snap ring plyers to take out the "C" clamps that hold the shifter in pull the shifter out and fill from there, just make sure you dont get fluid on your carpet(the smell will never go away) Unless you like that kinda thing:)

This answer was not by me but I DO NOT RECOMMEND DOING THIS. I did this with a Skyline in Japan and found that although it seemed full from the shifter, when we went under the car it took nearly 3 more bottles to reach optimum fill. Dont cut corners tranny's are not cheap. Use the nozzle on the bottle and the pumps at the Auto parts store go underneath your vehicle on a steady lift and fill it from the bottom till it squirts out.

I really doubt that there is a drain plug for the tranny, usually you have to unbolt the tranny fluid pan and take it down to get to the filter and drain the fluid.


How do you change the transmission fluid on a 1999 f150 5.4?

start up the vehicle and run through all the gears. then shut it off and go directly under the tranny pan. loosen up the bolt and drain the tranny fluid. when it is all drained, torque to bolt back on to the tranny pan at 25-30 lbs. then go back up to the engine compartment, where you check your tranny fluid level, and put about 5 quarts of tranny fluid in. then start your car up again, run through all the gears and check the fluid level again while the engine is running. add more fluid if you need to. if there is too much, drain a little bit out and check it again.

Where is the transmission dipstick in a 2003 Lincoln LS?

The drain plug on bottom of transmission pan has allen screw in center of plug. If you remove the alln set screw and no fluid comes out, the tranny fluid could be low. The fill plug is on the tail shaft of tranny just above the drive shaft ( top right). Tranny fluid must be pumped in this opening after removing plug. Hand pump can be purchased at most auto parts stores. Slowly add tranny fluid until it starts to run out of hole in center of drain plug ( allen set screw must be removed from center of drain plug) the drain plug is about 2 inches tall, this is the level of tranny fluid in pan. Tranny must be at operating temp when adding fluid to achieve prop fill. Yes there is no dipstick, if your tanny fluid get low, the check tanny light should come on.

How can you drain all the transmission fluid from transmission?

Find the drain plug on the tranny oil pan. Loosen it and the fluid should start to drain - remove the plug all the way and let the contents go into a pan. When doing this, one also needs to change the tranny oil filter - this is accomplished by removing the tranny oil pan and changing it.
