Automatic Transmission Fluid
It is not necessary to check the transmission fluid
level. A transmission fluid leak is the only reason for
fluid loss. If a leak occurs, take your vehicle to a
dealer/retailer and have it repaired as soon as possible.
Change the fluid and filter at the intervals listed in
the Maintenance Schedule. See Scheduled Maintenance
on page 6-4. Be sure to use the transmission fluid
listed in Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on
page 6-12.
Notice: Use of the incorrect automatic transmission
fluid may damage your vehicle, and the damages
may not be covered by your warranty. Always
use the automatic transmission fluid listed in
Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on page 6-12.
Manual Transmission Fluid
It is not necessary to check the manual transmission
fluid level. A transmission fluid leak is the only reason
for fluid loss. If a leak occurs, take the vehicle to a
dealer/retailer for service. Have it repaired as soon as
possible. You may also have your fluid level checked by
your dealer/retailer when you have your oil changed.
See Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on page 6-12
for the proper fluid to use.
Hydraulic Clutch
The hydraulic clutch linkage in your vehicle is
self-adjusting. This system does not have its own
reservoir. It receives fluid from the brake master
cylinder reservoir.
See Brakes on page 5-34 for more information.
