Checking Transmission Fluid Level and Condition Checking fluid level and condition (color and odor) at regular intervals will provide early diagnosis information about the transmission. This information may be used to correct a condition that, if not detected early, could result in major transmission repairs. IMPORTANT: When new, automatic transmission fluid is red in color. As the vehicle is driven, the transmission fluid will begin to look darker in color. The color may eventually appear light brown. A dark brown color with burnt odor may indicate excessive fluid deterioration and signal a need for fluid change. Fluid Level When adding or changing fluid, use only DEXRON ®-lll. Refer to Maintenance and Lubrication in General Information section for maintenance information and servicing interval. CAUTION: DO NOT OVERFILL. Overfilling will cause foaming, loss of fluid, abnor- mal shifting and possible damage to the transmis- sion. 1. Park the vehicle on level ground and apply the parking brake firmly. 2. Check fluid level with engine running at idle. NOTE: Be sure that transmission fluid temperature is below 30°C (86°F). 3. Move the selector lever through all gear ranges. 4. Move the selector lever to “Park”. 5. Let engine idle for 3 minutes and open the overfill screw (1). 6. Add released transmission fluid until it flows out over the overfill screw opening. 7. Let engine idle until a fluid temperature between 32° C (90°F) and 57°C (135°F) is reached, then close the overfill screw (1). Torque: 38 N*m (28 Ib ft) NOTE: Check transmission fluid temperature with scan tool. Minimum fluid level – 57°C (135°F) Maximum fluid level – 32°C (90°F)

Remove the gasket from the drain plug and discard. Installation Procedure 1. Install the new gasket on the drain plug. Notice: Refer to Component Fastener Tightening Notice. 2. Install the drain plug. Tighten the drain plug to 40 N.m (30 lb ft). 3. Make sure vehicle is level. 4. Remove the fluid level indicator located behind the front transaxle mount. Notice: Do not remove the 3rd gear anchor band bolt located on top of the transmission for checking fluid or adding fluid. Removing the bolt will dislocate internal components and require the transmission to be removed from the vehicle and disassembled for repair. Important: Dexron(R)III automatic transmission fluid is not compatible with this transaxle. If Dexron(R)III ATF is used, transaxle failure will result. Refer to Sealers, Adhesives, and Lubricants. 5. Add approximately 3.1 L (3.3 Qt)

NOTICE: The use of any fluid other than what is recommended for this transmission will cause transmission damage. Draining 1. With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist. For additional information, refer to Section 100-02. 2. Remove the transmission fluid drain plug and allow the transmission fluid to drain. Refill 3. Install the transmission fluid drain plug. Tighten to 47 Nm (35 lb-ft). 4. Remove the transmission fluid fill plug. 5. Fill the transaxle with approximately 3.7L (4 qt) of clean transmission fluid. 6. Install the transmission fluid fill plug. Tighten to 39 Nm (29 lb-ft). 7. With the transaxle in (P) PARK, the vehicle should be on a level surface, the engine at idle (680-780 rpm), foot pressed on the brake, move the selector lever through each gear and allow engagement of each gear. Place the selector lever back in the PARK position. 8. Wipe the transmission fluid level indicator cap and remove the fluid level indicator. 9. Wipe the transmission fluid level indicator with a clean cloth. 10. NOTE: In order to get an accurate transmission fluid level reading, the vehicle should be on a level surface, the engine at idle (680-780 rpm) for 5 minutes and the transmission fluid temperature should be at least 70°C-80° (158° C F-176° using the scan tool. F) If transmission fluid needs to be added, add transmission fluid in 0.25L (1/2 pint) increments through the transmission fluid fill plug located on the top of the transaxle near the transmission fluid level indicator. Do not overfill the transmission fluid. Install the transmission fluid level indicator back in the transmission fluid filler tube until it is fully seated, then remove the indicator. The transmission fluid level should be at the upper-most mark on the transmission fluid level indicator. Only fill to the upper-most mark on the transmission fluid indicator. Do not overfill. Damage to the transaxle will occur.
