Later models equipped with the MQ350 6 speed manual transmission have the main fill plug in the front of the
transmission case eliminated and it is now required to fill the transmission from the top around the selector shaft.
Service
If the drain plug is on the bottom and there is no fill plug on the front cover of the transmission case, follow the filling
procedure in Elsa Pro>Transmission Fluid Level Checking> Manual Transmission “without” Fluid Filler Plug.
