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 AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE ( ) until the

engine temperature gage moves and then remains steady

for 10 minutes.

A cold fluid check can be made after the vehicle has

been sitting for eight hours or more with the engine off,

but this 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 this cold check, you must check the

fluid hot before adding fluid. Checking the fluid hot 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.
