the transmission has enough uid to be operated
safely until a hot check procedure can be made. The
hot check procedure is the most accurate method
to check the uid level. Perform the hot check procedure

the transmission temperature is between 80°F and
90°F (27°C and 32°C).

dipstick at the rear of
the engine
compartment, on the
passenger side of
the vehicle.
SeeEngine Compartment Overview on page 5-14
for more information.
2. Flip the handle up, and then pull out the dipstick
and wipe it with a clean rag or paper towel.
3. Install the dipstick by pushing it back in all the way,
wait three seconds, and then pull it back out again.
4. Check both sides of the dipstick and read the lower
level. Repeat the check procedure to verify the
reading.
