Check Transmission Fluid Level and Condition

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
NOTE: Do not drive the vehicle if the transmission fluid level indicator shows the transmission fluid is below the minimum transmission fluid level mark or internal failure could result.

If the vehicle has been operated for an extended period of time at highway speeds, in city traffic, in hot weather or while pulling a trailer, the transmission fluid may need to cool down to obtain an accurate reading.

The transmission fluid level reading on the transmission fluid level indicator will differ depending on operating and ambient temperatures. The correct reading should be within the crosshatch area.
