    tranny fluid reservoir

    I believe my car is leaking tranny fluid, because i can't think of any possible fluid leaking from the passenger side. I can't seem to find the reservoir for it so i can put some more in it so my tranny wont go out, does anybody know where it is? Any help would be appreciated, thanks

    If it's manual there should be two nuts on the side of the tranny. Loosen the upper one and add more oil (fluid), which is pretty much motor oil (10W-30). If it's auto, geez, I've never done an auto before so I wouldn't know what to tell you...I think you add fluid (ATF) through the tranny dipstick tube. I THINK only.

    You of course don't use motor oil in your auto tranny. The fill / dipstick for the auto is below the distributor on the top of the tranny.
