Above your shifter you will see a little screw off cap on top of the side case just beneath your forward engine. it should say oil but if not, it´s the only one that is there. It screws off and the oil level is a tiny window beneath your shifter. Make sure the level is half of the windows length. Hope this helped. Pictures
