Not only are the fluids different between manual and automatic transmissions but the level of heat the fluids experience is remarkably different. Automatic transmissions generate considerable heat and thus the fluid in your transmission must be changed more ordinarily.

In many cases, manual transmissions don't come equipped with a dipstick to check your fluid levels, so it can be immensely difficult to do.
