    The 5-speed auto doesn't have a transmission dipstick. There's a procedure for checking fluid level, it's a sealed unit.

    There is no dipstick on a manual. You just take out the filler plug and check to see that the fluid is at the bottom of the filler hole.

    This will give you an idea of what to look for.
