Disco 1 trany question

I was under my truck today looking at the transmission. Its an automatic. Its pretty obvious how to get the fluid out, but how do you refill it? I looked all over and did not see a fill plug.

Sorry for such a noob question, but really I could not find the fill plug.

Thanks

Go look for the fill pipe in your engine compartment where the tranny dip stick is located.

I was checking my fluids today and noticed that the autobox fluid seems a little high, well above the top mark by about 2-3 inches. Can that damage the box?

RE: Disco 1 trany question

it can. Did you check it with the engine running and cold? Check your manual for the proper procedure.

The round orange **** is the trans stick and is where you put
the trans fluid in, it takes about 4.5qts after you drain it.
