Adjusting automatic transmission fluid levels

Before adding any fluid, make sure the correct type
is used. The type of fluid used is normally indicated
on the dipstick and also in the Lubricant
specifications
section in this chapter.

Use of a non-approved automatic transmission
fluid may cause internal transmission
component damage.

If necessary, add fluid in 250 ml (1/2 pint)
increments through the filler tube until the level is
correct.

If an overfill occurs,
excess fluid should be
removed by a qualified
technician.

An overfill condition of transmission fluid may
cause shift and/or engagement concerns and/or
possible damage.

Checking and adding manual transmission fluid
(if equipped)

1. Clean the filler plug.

2. Remove the filler
plug and inspect the
fluid level.
