where is the manuel transmission fulid fill hole?

[PERFECT_ESL]

i found a leak at the bottom pan of my transmission,
i already bought a gasket for it,
but before i try to change and refill and replace the leaking gasket,,,,
i cant find the fill hole of the transmission...

today i bleed the air out of the hydraulic clutch, clean the intake, new air filter, change the oil,
it shifts better,,, but still difficult to put in first gear at a dead stop.

please help me how to find the fill hole...

how old is your car?

the filler is on the pumpkin of the rear diff. its a bolt on the side by the axle.

mine is a 2009, has 43000 km now,

is the plug hole facing toward the sky ? or does it face to the left or right side, and where abouts,,,

[petrified.rabbit]

if i am looking correctly at the guide, it is on the drivers side (lefthand) and if you are looking at where the drivers axle comes out of the car as center, it is about 8 oclock on the housing.

i found the answer on that , from my owners manuel,
1, turn the key to "ON" (without engine turned on)
2, floor the gas pedal 3 times in 5 seconds. and the light blinks,
3, turn it off and remove the key.
4, turn on the engine like normal,
5, the light will turn off.
6, make sure to do that when the oill just been changed, not anytime...
i did this 1500 km after the oil change.

and still, looking for the fill hole for the trans....

It will likely be a plug in the side of the trans that uses an Allen wrench to remove. There might be two, the lower being a drain. They are usually near each other. It will sit flush or a little inside the transmission housing. I haven't looked myself so I don't know, this is what I have seen on other cars. Also when you replace the plug don't go past where it was when you started. It is possible to turn some of them right into the trans, then you are in trouble. Hope that helps some.

ok i read a few of other posts, and i looked into my car yesterday. i found 2 holes.
1, on the transmission just below the battery. covered by a black cap
2, a very hidden bolt at where the RIGHT cv shaft, the 8 o clovk position.


so i remove the black pan to drain,, and fill the fluid up to hole # 2 ?
other says that he should fill it to top up hole #1

i removed the black cap of hole #1, and try to dip some oil with a toothpick, yeah oil is there.
when i remove bolt 2, there wasnt any oil come out. i put my finger in , yes the level is low,
then i put the bolt back in there, ......................................

should i fill it and top up hole #1 or hole #2 at the next attempt ????????
