Lubrication Flow
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
A common sump supplies oil for the manual transaxle. When the manual transaxle is operating normally, the differential assembly splashes oil from the sump, to provide lubrication. The splashed oil is collected in an oil trough. The oil travels down the trough at the case end and lubricates the input and output shafts. The counter shaft is lubricated from the clutch housing end through splashed oil from the differential assembly.
