I went to check fluids today on my 2000 Discovery and found that there is no dipstick for the trans.How do you check the level,and change the fluid?

sucks - so if the fluid goes low you will never know it ....

i guess that means anytime there is a leak you have to fix it or crawl under the truck and refill?

That ZF transmission is also in some BMW's, and they don't expect you to check it either. The claim is that it's "permanently sealed." I'd just watch for leaks.
