Default Where's the dip stick?

Seriously, excuse my ignorance as I am new to Audi, and any car newer than 1997. I just bought a 97 A6 Quattro wagon and I want to change the transmission fluid. I am aware that some newer cars, such as MB, do not have a tranny dip stick and are a sealed transmission, generally servicable only by a dealer. Is this the same case for my A6, and if so, is there an alternative to the Audi stealership?

Also, I want to flush the brake system and drain and change the rear differential oil........any suggestions, recommendations would be greatly apprieciated.......

Puzzled new Audi owner.........................[&:]

No dipstick on the trans. I believe this is in the owners manual.
