Automatic Transmission Inspection
It is not necessary to check the transmission fluid level.
A transmission fluid leak is the only reason for fluid loss.
Check for leaks. If a leak occurs, take the vehicle to your
dealer and have it repaired as soon as possible.
Hydraulic Clutch System Check
Check the fluid level in the brake system and clutch
system reservoir. See Hydraulic Clutch on page 5-19.
A fluid loss in the brake or clutch hydraulic system could
indicate a problem. Have the system inspected and
repaired at once.
