On the side of the engine block just above the lip of the oil pan. you must take out the trans bolt that secures it first. it should come right out after that.

Your dip stick tube is your fill tube for your transmission . Make sure your transmission oil is at opperating temp before servicing some instructions are written on the dip stick , Use a small funnel , Add a little at a time (cup). Use the proper fluid , check regularly

SOURCE: transmission wont shift into any forward gears or

4WD! the transfer case is not stuck in neutral is it? Fluid levels are good? Have you noticed a decrease in mileage or power prior to this problem? If no then time to take it in for service it sounds like. Transmission fluid is not consummed, so if it leaked out then you may be able to fill it up and get the leak fixed, if too late then its a rebuild on the tranny.

SOURCE: what kind of transmission is in my 1996 gmc sierra

most likely it has a 4l60e. What size motor does the truck have and how many gears? That information will narrow it down for sure.
Thanks,

SOURCE: How do i put fluid in the transmission there is no

On the passenger side of the transmission, there is a fill plug and a drain plug. The fill will be the upper plug and it's the one you use to check to make sure you have the right amount of transmission fluid in your transmission. Manual Transmission, NV3500..........2 liters Manual Transmission, NV1500..........2.7 liters

Undo the plug with a wrench and if the transmission trickles out, your good to go. If there is no fluid trickling out, top it off and place the plug back in and tighten to (Manual Transmission NV1500 Fill Plug 17 ft/lbs) or (Manual Transmission NV3500 Fill Plug 44 ft/lbs)
Thank you for using fixya and be safe. Drain Plug 44 ft/lbs Drain Plug 27 ft/lbs

Testimonial: "thanks for your help i found the plug but it was on the driver side theres nothing on the passenger side."

You will need to remove the dip stick tube and replace the O-ring. You do not need to remove the dip stick from the vehicle. Just enough to pull the old O-ring off and slide the new O-ring on.

Transmission whining

have you checked the transmissions fluid level, need to check it with the car running in park or neutral, on level ground. If its in neutral make sure the parking brakes are applied and the tires chucked to secure the vehicle and prevent rolling. Locate the dip stick for the transmission pull it out whipe it clean, then re insert it into the dip stick tube until it is fully seated, pull the dip stick out and look at the markings it should read more than half on the hot side.

I have a 2001 Jimmy v6 4x4 and the transmission pan gasket was leaking. After replacing it and adding the proper amount of fluid i started my truck and now its leaking from both the dip stick seal and...

How did u add the transmission fluid? Did you just fill it to the marking on the stick? If you did, that's wrong.

Engine has to be at operating temperature, then filled to the hot marking. The transmission shift has to be moved through all gears including reverse, at least twice. Then the vehicle should be taken for a ten minute drive..do u have any DTC codes?

If you overfill a transmission, it can have the effects you have... try removing some through the fill tube using a suitable piece of clear plastic tubing...cheers.

I need to find where i would fill the transmission fluid for my 1986 gmc sierra 4x4 pickup?

It is a pain in the rear... But the fill is the same tube that the dip stick goes in. You have to have a short funnel. One of the paper funnels that you can get at gas stations work pretty well.

I hope that this helps you! If so please click four thumbs up! Thanks for using Fixya.com

I can't find the well for the Automatic Transmission Fluid. I see the cap for engine oil, brake fluid and steering fluid but no transmission fluid. Please help!!!

You must locate the transmission dip stick. Look towards the rear near the firewall. It looks like the oil dipstick but larger. You fill up or add transmission fluid through the transmission dipstick hole.
Good luck and thanks for your question and I hope my suggestions help. burdfrenzy

How do i refill the transmission oil in my 1997 Micra auto (1 ltr). Can't find the cap.

Hi: To Refill your Auto Transmission with Tranny Fluid, There is NO CAP, Look For a Dip Stick Similar to your Oil Dip Stick.You Refill your Transmission where the Transmission Dip Stick comes out of a Tube. You'll Need a Funnel that Fits inside the Transmission Dip Stick Tube. This Should Resolve your Question. Please Vote and That actually sends me How Well I have Helped You. OH Look Towards the middle to the Back of Your Engine to Locate Your Tranmission Dip Stick: From the WYOCWBOY
