2007 Camry/Aurion auto transmissions do not have a dipstick.

Auto industry trend to not have a transmission apparently started in mid 1990's. Just guessing [I also like a good conspiracy theory which mirrors reality] but this would have marginally reduced the manufacturing cost. Also servicing becomes more specialised so more work for the dealership.

2001 Honda Accord transmissions have a dipstick but the inline filter is "sealed for life" within the transmission. There is no transmission pan to readily access the filter. The transmission has to be removed and disassembled to replace the filter. Lesson learnt, so I will not buy a vehicle that does not have an accessible transmission pan to change the filter.
