It is possible that there may be some slight differences in our transmissions depending on when each car was built. Other than that, I'm not sure what to say, and I wish my memory was less fuzzy. But I am absolutely certain that I did not drop the drive shaft to do either the transmission or transfer case fluid changes. In fact, I don't remember working on the left side of the drive train at all.

I have to do an oil change here soon and I'll inspect my tranny for its fill plug and report back. Sorry to mess with your head.
Ah, that makes sense. Thanks for sharing some more about your X1! Interesting that our models have slight variations in transmission design.
