Auto Transmission Dipstick

Hey everyone,

This is going to sound very dumb but...I started to change auto transmission fluid when I got home from work today as it is my only evening off for the next 10 days, I am due for a change and I have to drive to NY tomarrow for work. Anyways, I drained the transmission pan, had a beer, now its dark as **** out and I cant find the transmission dipstick. Can anyone direct me to EXACTLY where I should be looking, it is difficult to see much even with a flashlight. Thanks!

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Re: Auto Transmission Dipstick

Is this on your Lincoln Navigator, or a Civic?


AAaahh a Civic.
I wonder what year it might be....



Must be a 7th gen.
Here's some low hanging fruit.


The trans stick has a yellow loop handle.


Grab your flashlight.



Next time, prepare yourself better.

You will need a funnel to reach the hole now.
