oil drain plug location switched, 2007 tl
So i recently purchased a 2007 tl automatic when i changed the transmission fluid the drain plug was on the opposite side of the transmission , mine is on the passenger side of transmission. All of the forums and pictures showed it on drivers side of the transmission .. I am confused why its on opposite side. Makes me wonder if it has a different year transmission in it or something is different about it . thanks in advance
