How to Check Automatic Transmission

Fluid

Because this operation can be a little difficult, you

may choose to have this done at the dealer service

department.

If you do it yourself, be sure to follow all the instructions

here, or you could get a false reading on the dipstick.

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 you have been driving:

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.

To get the right reading, the fluid should be at

normal operating temperature, which is 82°C to 93°C

(180°F to 200°F).

Get the vehicle warmed up by driving about 24 km

(15 miles) when outside temperatures are above

10°C (50°F). If it is colder than 10°C (50°F), you may

have to drive longer.

Checking the Fluid Level

Prepare your vehicle as follows:

1. Park your vehicle on a level place. Keep the

engine running.

2. With the parking brake applied, place the shift

lever in P (Park).

3. With your foot on the brake pedal, move the shift

lever through each gear range, pausing for about

three seconds in each range. Then, position the

shift lever in P (Park).

4. Let the engine run at idle for three to five minutes.
