Best Answer

Behind the air filter box (between the air filter box and the firewall) and under the big black elbow that directs air into the engine is a small twist off cap and dip stick. This is the top of your transmission. Be careful when removing the cap and dip stick. It only takes like a 1/4 turn and then the cap shoul be able to lift straight out. The contents are not under pressure and it should be checked while the engine is idling and warm.
