OK, so this is a bit of a dumba$$ question, but I'm not that handy with a wrench, I can barely change my own oil. When changing out the manual transmission oil and the FWD oil, how do you fill it up with fresh oil? From the diagram it looks like the fill holes are on the side and underneath the car. Is there some kind of trick or equipment required?

When you goto the autoparts and look at the gear oil instock, you will see these simple hand pump attachments that screw to the top of the gear oil spout, get the one with a long clear hose, You use that to pump the old fluid out of the container and into the tranny.

If you say you can barely change your own engine oil,

then I'd suggest you let a professional change your transmission and front/rear differential oils.

How many miles on your car? It's scheduled at 90k miles.

What is the degree of difficulty of changing the transmission and FWD oil compared to changing the engine oil and filter?

Cars got 42K on it but I plan to start tracking it and I have no idea how the original owner drove the car. I figure changing out the fluids after some track time is cheap insurance.
