Sure are new... manual transaxles don't have dipsticks. Different years had different ways of checking the level and filling.

Yup, you can always get a 17mm allen socket and open up the one plug on the side. When you fill it up, you wait until it starts coming out and then close it off. That's when you know it's full. Unless there is a leak, it's a sealed case.
