Im pretty sure there isnt one. When I had my drivetrain flushed I used all OEM fluids so thats what I would recommend. You might wanna take a look at this thread https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=75589

Im not sure if it burns like motor oil but either way I changed mine when my car had roughly 13k. I basically follow the severe condition maintenance schedule even though my car is really only driven 2-3 miles a day during the week and maybe 20-30 miles over the weekend or sometimes not at all lol.

I dont know of many manual tranny that have provisions for a dipstick as you would see in a auto.

The oil will not get low as there is really nowhere for it to go. Though it will break down and certainly needs to be changed.

You need to use OEM Super Diaqueen in the 6-speed the search button will help you there. Drain it out through the drain bolt and fill it through the fill bolt just like all manual tranny's.

Hope that helps

there will be a fill hole(usually a 3/8 socket size), and then under it a drain hole.

Unless there is a puddle on your garage floor there is no where for the oil to go. When you drain/refill it fill it up until it starts coming back out...thats how you know its full
