I think I found the problem (tranny popping out of gear)
In the last week my tranny popped out of sixth and fourth a couple times. Fearing the worst, I did my due diligence and googled the crap out of it, ending up buying new tranny fluid with intent to change it today. When I got under there, I discovered that the fill plug is....missing. So there's probably not much, in any fluid in there.
1. What kind of damage might I have done to the tranny?
2. Need to replace the plug/washer. Any idea what thread pitch it is? Manuals looks like it's 14mm diameter.
Thanks in advance.

In the cases I am aware of the failure to stay in gear is an internal shaft problem and is fixed with a transmission repair. I would be surprised that a fluid change or external change would have much affect.

Running almost dry is bad. Depends also how much u drove on it empty. If I wer u I would refill oil and drive cautiously until u don't hear any weird noises. If anything u prob toasted some of the bearings. Iv done my trans.... is easy and cheap to do but labor intensive.
