Wait at least 30 minutes before checking the

transmission fluid level if you have been driving:

When outside temperatures are above 90 F (32 C).

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 180 F to

200 F (82 C to 93 C).

Get the vehicle warmed up by driving about 15 miles

(24 km) when outside temperatures are above 50 F

(10 C). If it’s colder than 50 F (10 C), drive the

vehicle in DRIVE (D) until the engine temperature gage

moves and then remains steady for 10 minutes. Then

follow the hot check procedures.

Checking Transmission Fluid Cold

A cold check is made after the vehicle has been sitting

for eight hours or more with the engine off and is used

only as a reference. Let the engine run at idle for five

minutes if outside temperatures are 50 F (10 C) or

more. If it’s colder than 50 F (10 C), you may have to

idle the engine longer. Should the fluid level be low

during a cold check, you must perform a hot check

before adding fluid. This will give you a more accurate

reading of the fluid level.

Checking the Fluid Level

Prepare your vehicle as follows:

Park your vehicle on a level place. Keep the

engine running.

With the parking brake applied, place the shift lever

in PARK (P).

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 PARK (P).

Let the engine run at idle for three minutes or more.
