Help finding the ATF filler bolt
Can anyone take a picture as to where the ATF Filler Bolt is? I've been trying to find this bolt for almost two hours and can't seem to find it. By any chance does the bolt have a blue coating on top of it? I've searched already on here and there's not one picture of the bolt or anything only people saying oh it's the bolt connected to this and to that blah blah blah.......so if anyone can help me out asap I need to get this done.

It is a 17mm bolt on top of the tranny. You need to look past the intake box to see it. It really is the only big bolt there. You may have a jet kit plugged into it making it hard to tell where it is, and so it might not have a big bolt there anymore. I am at work so I can't upload a pic.

I see this big bolt near the back of the tranny close to the firewall and it has some sort of line connected to it......from that it's the only big bolt I can actually see. I think my car did get an oil jet kit installed so i don't even know what that looks like either.

if you look at the top of your tranny and there is a line going into a bolt-looking thing that is the spot. I'm not near my car right now. Oil jet kit's were installed straight through this bolt hole, and i'm not sure if that complicates the fluid changing but there is a Technical Service Bulletin on the subject.

If you have the jet kit you can undo the bolt and pull the jet out. Then stick in a funnel and fill. My TL has a jet so I put a piece of tubing on the end of a funnel and fill the tranny through the dipstick hole. This takes awhile to fill, but you don't have to go through the hassle of taking the jet kit out.
