Default Synthetic transmission fluid.

Anyone change their transmission fluid yet? Where is the drain plug and where do you refill the tranny?

I have. the drain plug is on the back of the transmission at the bottom. It is a 24mm the cross member is in the way. The fill is on the side underneath the slave cylinder, it has a white sticker on it. I used Mobil One 75W90 synthetic. You need a flexable tube that hooks onto the oil bottle to fill it. It takes 2.5 quarts

75w90? that seems surprisingly thick for a modern transmission. I know my Z24 uses Synchromesh, which is actually a synthetic fluid based on 5w30 motor oil.
