      where is the manuel transmission fulid fill hole?

      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...

      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.

      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 ????????

      i thought you have the 18" version of these,, just "yo!" show you., nothing special

      i read the other post, nenemasy (that red turbo aveo guy) said he fill it from the top hole, until it tops up.
      but the other guy said only top up to the bottom hole,

      i am so confused, ...
      what is the purpose of the top hole ?
