Default post pic of Trans Drain Plug??

Did a search but couldn't find any pics... Can someone please post up a picture of the location & the transmission drain plug for an 06 HCH? Please! I was going to change it but didn't want to pull the wrong one. Thanks!

Great illustration, How many quarts of CVT fluid are needed for this simple oil change

No problem.
Did you just change it, or did you do the 3X flush? There has been a lot of debate on this website on which way to do it.

Well when I pulled the plug, I noticed the fluid barely had a tint to it. so when it was done I just poured half a qt down & let it drain out, when that was gone, the remaining fluid that was dripping out was clean. So I didn't do the 3X...just pluged it back up and filled! Took alot less time & effort than I anticipated. Although I didn't pull the fill plug. I just went thru the dip stick.
