The plug on my '99 is side-mounted to the tranny case (that is, it's NOT pointing down like on C900s or pointing back/down like the engine oil drain plug). It faces the passenger side on my car (just like Peter said), real close to the catalytic converter, & has an aluminum crush washer.
I've never read anything here that says there's a screen to clean or replace, so you shouldn't need to drop the pan at all. I haven't seen any torque values for this plug (I haven't looked very hard), but I'd say no less than 10 or 12 ft-lbs & no more than 30 or so. I've reused the aluminum crush washer several times now (I keep forgetting to get a new one), & it's staying leak-free so far. It has a distinct step in it from the bolt's shoulder, so I don't flip it around the way I do the copper engine oil drain plug.
PeterH,
How's the A-Rx cleaning going? Are you into the rinse cycle yet? Or the second cleaning?
