Hello,

This car has a plug in the side of the transmission case that must be removed to check the fluid much like a typical standard transmission is done only with the engine running. Here is a guide to help you get an idea.

Here are diagrams to help you get the job done on your car.

Check out the diagrams (Below)

Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
