I have a 94 Sentra 5-speed. It's been a while since my transaxle oil was checked. I had it changed at 105K miles, 30K ago.
The Haynes manual tells me I must jack up the car to check the oil. But I can reach the check plug easily from the top. Is there another reason to jack it up?
Also, the plug is pretty stubborn; couldn't loosen it with a 3/8 ratchet. I sprayed WD-40 around it and will try again tomorrow. If that doesn't work, any suggestions? Penetrating oil and a breaker bar?
