plug? It's much easier if I drain and refill (I have to do this three times to change to the synthetic fluid). I found that I can do all this with the tires on the car and drive it for a few seconds between flushes to distribute it. To use that plug, I have to remove the wheel every time, which is time consuming if I repeat the process two or three times.
Not sure what the "check" plug is needed for? It says 1.5 liters of oil. Might it be that some remains in the transmission and one wouldn't want to overfill? It'd be good if I could use 1 liter instead of 1.5 between flushes, but I will drive it for a few seconds and it will have load, so perhaps it makes sense not to risk anything.
