When to Check and Change Automatic

Transmission Fluid

A good time to check your automatic transmission ﬂuid

level is when the engine oil is changed.

Change the ﬂuid and ﬁlter at the intervals listed in

Additional Required Services (Gasoline Engine) on

page 6-7, and be sure to use the transmission ﬂuid listed

in Recommended Fluids and Lubricants (Gasoline

Engine) on page 6-14.

How to Check Automatic

Transmission Fluid

Because this operation can be a little difficult, you may

choose to have this done at the dealership service

department.

If you do it yourself, be sure to follow all the instructions

here, or you could get a false reading on the dipstick.

Notice: Too much or too little ﬂuid can damage

your transmission. Too much can mean that some

of the ﬂuid could come out and fall on hot engine

part or exhaust system parts, starting a ﬁre.

Too little ﬂuid could cause the transmission to

overheat. Be sure to get an accurate reading if you

check your transmission ﬂuid.

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.

Checking the Fluid Level

Prepare your vehicle as follows:

1. Park your vehicle on a level place. Keep the engine

running.

2. With the parking brake applied, place the shift lever

in PARK (P).

3. With your foot on the brake pedal, run the engine

for at least once minute and shift to DRIVE (D).

Then shift to NEUTRAL (N) and then REVERSE (R)

to ﬁll the hydraulic system. Then, position the

shift lever in PARK (P).

4. Allow the engine to run at idle (500–800 rpm).

Slowly release the brake pedal.
