Default transmission fluid check

what are the steps to checking the tranny fluid? Where is the filler plug that I'm supposed to remove. Could you be exact please because the picture on the manual is not very accurate. If you have pictures that would be outstanding Oh and the model is a 01 Z06.

Thankful for any help I get

Peyman

This is a deep tranny pan, however the plug is on the left in the same location as the stock pan.

pretty sure that's an automatic tranny pan there. your z06 should have a drain plug on the pass side of the t56, and a fill plug w/ temp sensor higher up on the driver side.
