Sure, but we don't show a manual transmission in this car? Can you please double check the year/make/model?

Hello,

There are 2 types of manual transmission fitted to this vehicle.
A 5 or 6 speed transmission.
Both use the same specification transmission oil SAE75W,
Ford WSS-M2C200-D2
The 5-speed unit has a 1.9L capacity, the 6 speed 1.75L capacity.
Drain and fill plug locations are in images below.
Image 1+2 for 5 speed transmission, 3+4 for 6 speed transmission.
