How to Check
Because this operation can be a
little difficult, the decision may be
made to have this done at the
dealership service department.
If the decision is made to perform
this operation, be sure to follow all
the instructions here, or a false
reading on the dipstick could result.
Notice:
Too much or too
little fluid can damage the
transmission. Too much can
mean that some of the fluid could
come out and fall on hot engine
parts or exhaust system parts,
starting a fire. Too little fluid
could cause the transmission to
overheat. Be sure to get an
accurate reading if checking the
transmission fluid.
Wait at least 30 minutes before
checking the transmission fluid level
if the vehicle has been driven:
.
When outside temperatures are
above 32°C (90°F).
.
At high speed for quite a while.
.
In heavy traffic
—
especially in
hot weather.
.
While pulling a trailer.
