First, you double posted by mistake. No worries, a moderator will clean that up.
Second, you posted in the wrong forum. The How-to section is so that you can create a thread explaining how to do something. Your post would have been better off in the General G6 section.
Now, as far as I remember, the 4T45-E and 4T65-E are non-serviceable transmissions. All that really means is that you don't have a dip stick to check the fluid level. I might be wrong, but I think that you need to drop the tranny to service it, so you'll probably be better off taking it to a dealership or a transmission shop.

I put myself on a list with Helm for the service manual for our car about six months ago. I still have not received any information on one.
For your case though, you may want to look into a service manual for the 1999-2005 Chevrolet Malibu, Oldsmobile Alera, and Pontiac Grand Am. There should be information in there on tranny service for the 4T45-E transmission.

This might be an even better guide for you. The only thing to remember is that the air box on the Grand AM is where our FUSE BOX is on the G6.

I'm almost posative the 60 and 65's have dip sticks, the 40 and 45 dont, that I know for a fact. They have a plug on the side of the tranny that you need to remove as you add fluid when it starts to come out of the plug its full. Don't ask me where it is because I can't remeber.2009 Panther Black G8 GT

i am pretty sure the 4T60 has a dipstick, my truck has a 4L60 and i think it has one.
i dunno if this helps or not, but you can get exploded view illustrations for them here:
