Sounds like a typical slush box transmission to me. heck, most auto tranny's don't even have drain plugs on the pans but mine do because the first time I changed the fluid, the pans got a bulkhead fitting installed so I can change them as well. On my Ford Focus RS, I have to have the rear end of the vehicle quite a bit lower than the front to drain out all the oil as the drain plug is not on the bottom but on the backside about an inch above the floor of the pan.I saw a post on another website about Dodge Challengers and it showed how some drain plugs aren’t really on the bottom of the pan and maybe an oil extractor does a better job. I’m not convinced an extractor does a better job but in some cases it might.
