    hole on tranny beside clutch release arm

    Hey guys, there is a hole on the tranny beside the clutch release arm. it is on the right side of it and appears a bolt is supposed to go there. this can be seen from the front of the car.
    Can someone please tell me what it is for as i am missing something there.

    If the hole itself is threaded, it is for the backup switch. If it is not, it may be the vent hole that should have a tube connected to it.

    If it is threaded and you do not have anything in it, you need to get a backup switch and a new washer to seal it because the tranny can leak oil from that hole if it is not properly sealed.

    Back-up lights switch would be my guess.
