How to Check 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 the vehicle to the
dealer and have it repaired as soon
as possible.
The vehicle is not equipped with a
transmission fluid level dipstick.
There is a special procedure for
checking and changing the
transmission fluid. Because this
procedure is difficult, it should be
done at the dealer. Contact your
dealer for additional information or
refer to the procedure in the service
manual. To purchase a service
manual, see Service Publications
Ordering Information on page 13-11.
Change the fluid and filter at the
intervals listed in Maintenance
Schedule on page 11-4, and be
sure to use the fluid listed in
Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants on page 11-13.
