there's a bolt at the bottom of the tranny that you can stick a 3/8 rachet to remove the bolt and drain it.

Look at this thread. You can see it's alot easier to fill the tranny through the VSS:

D series is 1.8. I'm not sure about B series but it's probably like 2.0. There's no way it's close to 3.

im pretty sure but not 100% positive ......but it takes a little more than 2 quarts. I know its not 3 quarts in between 2 & 3 quarts.

thanks alot guys...is this bolt by the passenger side??? i will get 3 quarts to play it safe

TheIceMan

also...the thread says to change the washer to ensure no leakage...rubber?? metal?? size??

Yeah, it's on the passenger side. Jack the car up and lookunderneath. It's the one bolt that doesn't take a socket. The bolt has a round edge and has a big square in it. So you only put your ratchet in it.
