Now lets see.....if I wanted to drain a tranny of all its fluid where would I put the drain?
Try the bottom center. Tom W

Drain- Bottom
Fill- midway center on passenger side. Both use a 14mm allen socket. |

For that side one you may need to grind the 14mm down a bit. I did because of the sound proofing that came in the turbo models. Otherwise a 14mm crescent can be used in place of a ratchet. Make sure you do the fill plug first and have a hand pump.

I ran into the same situation that Winmutt explained above when loosening the fill plug. I cut off a 1" section of a 14mm allen wrench and used the box end of a wrench to turn it.
