Nope - not the same transmission - the 3.0i uses a GM transmission while our 3.0d uses a ZF.

The GM transmissions use regular Dexron ATF while the ZF transmission uses ZF Lifeguard fluid.

Not sure about your trans, Spartan, but mine (a ZF 6HP26X aka BMW GA6HP26Z) has the fill port on the bottom of the valve body cover...
