Checking automatic transmission fluid at cool temperature

(32°F-81°F [17°C-27°C])

If a fluid check is necessary at a low

fluid temperature (32°F-81°F

[17°C-27°C]), perform the check

using the cold range on the dipstick.

However, the fluid must be re-checked at the proper fluid temperature.

Low fluid level

Do not drive the vehicle if the fluid

level does not show at all on the

dipstick.

High fluid level

Fluid levels above the safe range

may result in transaxle failure. An

overfill condition of transmission

fluid may cause shift and/or

engagement concerns and/or

possible damage.

High fluid levels can be caused by an overheating condition.

Adjusting automatic transmission fluid levels

Before adding any fluid, make sure the correct type is used. The type of

fluid used is normally indicated on the dipstick and also in the

Lubricant specifications section in this chapter.

Note: Only one ATF fluid specification has been tested and approved for

use with 6-speed—Premium Automatic Transmission fluid. Mercon fluids

can not be used in a automatic 6-speed without damage or voiding

warranty.

Use of a non-approved automatic transmission fluid may cause

internal transaxle component damage.

If necessary, add fluid in 1/2 pint (250 mL) increments through the filler

tube until the level is correct.
