    There is this little box in the upper right hand corner of your screen that says Search. Type "fill plug" and hit enter.

    Thanks Shelf Life! Wow Aggie, I figured I would get a few shitty responses. But one right off the bat...I'm so blessed.

    The fill plug will have WS on it for World Standard, the type of fluid it takes and the overflow/check plug actually has Check stamped in it.

    Yup, got it.... thanks guys. It was 3/4 qt low. No more 20MPH driveline vibe while coming to a stop, and no more 2 second hesitation going from park to drive. Effin assembly line workers!!

    What procedure did you follow specifically to check? Jumper? Warm it up and pull it? Scan gauge? Thinking I may just do it myself too.

    I did the jumper method. A bit of a pain in the arse. Took about 11 minutes to warm up to the proper temp. A buddy of mine did it before me, and it took the same time. I was about ready to just warm it up for ten minutes and throw in 1/2 a qt to see what it did. But 25 years of Naval aviation maintenance in my noggin took over...haha! Just came back from another drive. Silky smooth now. Greased the driveshafts too. My '13 Taco had the same 20-25 MPH driveline vive at times and weird shifting. I wonder if it was low too.
