A restriction of automatic transmission only on your license indicates that you are only authorized to operate vehicles with automatic transmissions. This restriction typically applies if you have not demonstrated the ability to drive a manual transmission vehicle during your driving test. If you wish to remove this restriction, you would need to take a driving test in a manual transmission vehicle to prove your competency.
To properly fill a manual transmission, start by ensuring the vehicle is on a level surface and the engine is cool. Remove the fill plug, typically located on the side of the transmission, and use a funnel to add the appropriate type of transmission fluid until it begins to seep out of the fill hole. Replace the fill plug securely, and check for any leaks. Always consult the owner's manual for the correct fluid type and specific filling procedures for your vehicle.
Using an ECU from an automatic transmission in a manual transmission vehicle can lead to compatibility issues. The ECU is programmed to manage the automatic transmission's shifting patterns, which are different from those in a manual setup. While it may be possible to make it work with modifications, it typically requires reprogramming or tuning to function properly with a manual transmission. It's generally recommended to use an ECU specifically designed for the manual version of the vehicle for optimal performance.

If you accelerate and the transmission shifts to a lower gear of the overdrive disengages the RPMs will increase. If the vehicle has a manual transmission a slipping clutch will cause the RPMs to increase if the clutch is defective.
The fluid level is checked at the fill plug on the side of the manual transmission underneath the vehicle with the vehicle level
