High fluid level

Fluid levels above the safe range may result in transmission failure.

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

High fluid levels can be caused by an overheating condition.

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. Refer to Maintenance
product specifications and capacities
in this chapter.

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

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

If an overfill occurs, excess fluid should be removed by an authorized
dealer.
