GM, in their (not-so) infinite wisdom, built this vehicle during a period of time when they were certain that you would never need to check your Transmission Fluid. In fact, the owner's manual stated that unless you have a visible leak, you don't need to check the fluid level. Well, in the real world, vehicles get older and fluid seepage may occur, and before you know it you're low on transmission fluid. So, in short, there is no good answer as to why, they just didn't want to. Probably what they thought was a cost-cutting measure, even though it didn't keep them from declaring bankruptcy 10 years later, did it?
not as far as i know, it has a sealed transmission !
2001 Malibu's have a sealed transmission. They don't have a dip stick.
I have a 1999 Potiac Grand Am SE, and I cannot find the transmission dip stick to check the transmission fluid.
There is no Tranny dipstick on 1996 and newer malibus
it doesnt have one.
If this is an automatic, it would be in view on one side or the other close to the firewall. If this is a stick or manual transmission you don't have a dip stick.
There is a plug with a red plastic cap on the top of the transmission. Pull this out and you will see a dip stick. Use the dip stick measurements to determine if you need more fluid or not.
There is not one.............you have to use the plug located on the passengers side of the transaxle.
There is no dip stick you must remove the upper plug by the drain.

There is no dip stick in the ML for the transmission box - It has to be done by the Mercedes Dealer who has the required dip stick Hope this helps
The transmission dip stick is located near the oil dip stick. This is in a 1962 Catalina.
