Where is the dipstick for the transmission oil?

the car is a toyota lucida estima 2.2 diesel automatic, year 90 to 91. it is under the seat but which is the engine oil and which is the transmission oilWhere is the dipstick for the transmission oil?
the oil dip stic is 11'; long the trany dip stic is roughly 8';-9'; long and is located on the drivers side under hood next to the stearing collom yolk '; witch looks like 2 u shaped peaces of metal with a rubber boot around itWhere is the dipstick for the transmission oil?
seriously, if your not sure you should take it to a garage, it's a knightmare if you drain the wrong one, i was a dummy and messed up and it cost me a fair bit to sort.


If you really wanna do it get a manual specific to your car, Haynes is a good one
if you have a user handbook look in there it should tell you.
if the transmission is auto it will have a dip stick which you should check with the engine running gears in park dip stick will have hot cold levels


if it is a manual it will have a level plug half way up the side of the gearbox this is topped up until oil drips out of level plug,or you can put your finger in the hole [engine not running]and you should be able to feel oil,thats o.k.
Look up the exhaust pipe when the engine is running and if you look hard enough you may just be a total IDIOT. thanks for the points.
I dont know, where is he??





If i get my hands on him...
