(The PTU fluid and ATF was nasty at 85k miles on my 2010 Escape)
I was easily able to change fluids in the Auto trans, PTU and rear diff in my 2010 Escape (3L v6) with simple drain (well suck/pump-out but easy)/fill procedures, so would be great if I can do the same with the Sport.

- ATF changes (is there a dipstick/tube/drain plug?),
- PTU (drain plug?) and
- Rear differential Fluid (drain plug?).
