    I bought Transmission fluid WS from Toyota website and need to perform a drain and fill on my 2019 Tacoma SR, 4x4.

    I found the drain plug and a second plug nearby which I gather is the standpipe plug.

    For the life of me, I couldn't find the Fill plug on driver's side of the transmission.

    I know it must have one but I couldn't locate it.

    Can someone post a pic or several pics up close or with arrows pointing to it?

    Thanks in advance!

    It is on the passenger's side, up high past one of the heat shields. If you crawl under the truck with a flashlight you eventually find it on the vertical wall of the transmission. Check this video around 3:19 to get an idea of where to poke around.

    Make sure you can get the fill plug loose before you drain the trans.
