The 5R55W 5 speed automatic transmission doens't have a dipstick. It must be taken to the dealer to do anything with the Transmission Fluid. There are ways to change it yourself, but they probably aren't worth your time. If you have a 2001 or older, remover the pan (make sure you have something to collect the fluid), drain, probably should replace the filter, reinstall pan, good idea to have a new gasket, fill with appropriate amount of fluid. Your owners manual should tell you how many quarts and what kind. If you don't have one, ask the guy at the auto parts store when you pick up the fluid.

If there is a real need to change the transmission fluid, one simply unscrews the drain plug on the bottom of the transmission. If there is a need to do this, it is strongly suggested that one drop the transmission pan and change the filter also. Always catch the old fluid in an approved container and dispose of properly.
