Low Lubricant Level
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Jeep Wrangler and 2015 Jeep Wrangler. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
A low transmission lubricant level is generally the result of a leak, inadequate lubricant fill or incorrect lubricant level check.
Rear transmission leaks will be from the oil seals or component mating surfaces.
Front transmission leaks will be from the front input shaft retainer seal. Lubricant may drip from the clutch housing after extended operation. If leak is severe, it may contaminate the clutch disc.
Lubricant level check can only be made when the vehicle is level and allowing the lubricant to settle for a minute before checking. This will ensure an accurate check and avoid an under filled or over filled condition.
