it's the big hole with the square plug in the front of the tranny. make sure the car is level, then start filling until fluid starts dripping out the hole.

oh.. nevermind.. you're auto.. thought the sig said stick..

for the autos, it's the tranny dipstick hole. you gotta use a funnel with a long tube on the end. you can buy them at parts stores for a couple bucks.

Either that, or pull the speed sensor out and pour it in through that hole.

yeah..long neck funnel through the dipstick hole.

I just wanted to add, make sure the funnel is clean as clean as can be.

If he can't find the filler/dipstick tube

A funnel will do him no good. When you pop the hood, it's going to be on "your" right side (for obvious reasons, tranny is on your right) It's down low between next to the lower radiator hose. If you have stock intake it might be harder to see with all the intake stuff

We got it with the funnel. Thanks guys. Did an axle job on the front and had to refill with tranny fluid.
