The transmission housing should have a fill plug on the outside of the transmisson - higher than midpoint. The plug can be removed and the fluid checked at this point. If fluid is needed, fill the transmission until the fluid just runs out of this fill plug level.
Which means it's under the car you'll need a floor jack and 2 floor stands to do it safely (unless you're skinny :-)
Check transmission fluid, if low, fill to proper lvl. Fluid supposed to be reddish pink. If fluid looks good, its probably the transmisson control selonoid. If its dark and/or smells burned, and/or has dark specks throughout the fluid, a fluid change with filter might help, but you will need to replace your transmisson as burned smelling fluid or dark specks in your fluid indicates a severly worn transmission.
Trans fluid is added at the side of the transmission,not the tube.It can be added with a siphon pump.But I would recommend you take it to the dealership or a quality repair facility.
I'm not familiar with that vehicle but some newer models don't have dipsticks to check the transmisson fluid. They are sealed systems and the only wasy to check them is to remove the fill plug from the transmission itself.
The filler is the tube with the dipstick under the hood. Check when hot, engine running and the car in prk. Use a gooseneck funnel to bring the transmission fluid to the mark. Do not overfill.
The 2200 series transmission has no dipstick. There is a small bolt on the side of the transmisson that you have to undo and fill until fluid begins pouring out.
