When to Check and Change
Automatic Transmission Fluid
It is usually not necessary to check
the transmission fluid level. The only
reason for fluid loss is a transmission
leak or overheated transmission. This
vehicle is not equipped with a gearbox
fluid level dipstick. There is a special
procedure for checking and changing
the gearbox fluid in these vehicles.
Because this procedure is difficult,
this should be done at the dealer.
Contact the dealer for additional
information.
Caution
Using the incorrect automatic
transmission fluid may damage the
vehicle, and the damage may not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Always use the automatic
transmission fluid listed in
Recommended Fluids and Lubricants

scheduled maintenance intervals
listed in
