I know this is stupid, but where do I fill the transmission fluid? I just got this car two days ago and have no idea. It is a 1993 Mazda 626. I just want to put transmission fluid in to get it to my farm about 20 miles away and drop it off. Thank you and have a good laugh.

For automatic transmission:
Fill fluid through the dipstick tube.

For manual transmission:
U need to put the car on jack stands.
Remove the check/fill plug with a socket or box-end wrench.
Fill the transmission fluid into this hole with a funnel and hose.

Suggested Repair

Confirm whether the transmission is automatic or manual. For an automatic, add fluid through the dipstick tube. For a manual, safely support the car, remove the check/fill plug, and add fluid through that opening with a funnel and hose.
