Transaxle & Transmission

  1. Ensure transmission or transaxle is at normal operating temperature, with vehicle on level ground. Apply parking brake, and run engine at curb idle. Shift gear selector lever through all positions, ending in Park.
  2. Fluid level should be at top notch on dipstick if checked at operating temperature. If transmission is at room temperature, fluid level should be between 2 notches on bottom of dipstick.
  3. DO NOT overfill. Check condition of fluid for contamination and burned smell. Fully re-seat dipstick.
