It can be ATF or motor oil. Usually, there is a (reddish) label on top or the side of the transmission. Also, check how much you sucked out. It is very easy to overfill. Mine (Hurth 50) takes .7 l of ATF.

Check for correct fluid type. Mine takes ATF. - .7 litres. A little less because it's hard to vacuum all of the fluid out.

The filler and dipstick cap is accessible on the top and I think there is a drain plug on the side somewhere that is far less accessible. My current thoughts are that I should be able to drain the transmission oil from the filler/dipstick opening using an oil removal pump in the same manner as I drain the engine oil. I am thinking the vacuum style oil change pump with a long enough hose to make access relatively easy Is this a common practice and would it work?
