to bring the level into the COLD band. It does not take much fluid, generally less than

one pint (0.5L). Do not overfill.

6.Perform a hot check at the first opportunity after the transmission reaches a normal operating temperature between 160°F to 200°F (71°C to 93°C).

7.If the fluid level is in the acceptable range, push the dipstick back in all the way, then flip the handle down to lock the dipstick in place.

Hot Check Procedure

Use this procedure to check the transmission fluid level when the transmission fluid temperature is between 160°F and 200°F (71°C and 93°C).

The hot check is the most accurate method to check the fluid level. The hot check should be performed at the first opportunity in order to verify the cold check. The fluid level rises as fluid temperature increases, so it is important to ensure the transmission temperature is within range.

1.Locate the transmission dipstick at the rear of the engine compartment, on the passenger’s side of the vehicle.

The dipstick handle has this graphic. See Engine Compartment Overview on page 406 for

more information.
