Checking Transmission Fluid
Check the level of your automatic transmission fluid. Pull out the transmission fluid dipstick located at the back of the engine near the firewall. Wipe it off, replace it and pull it out again. Check the level against the markings at the bottom of the dipstick. A low level should be addressed immediately with a trip to a transmission specialist.
Check the color of the fluid; it should be clear pink. Any darkness warrants a fluid and filter change. Manual transmission should be checked for oil level by NAPA AutoCare Center when the engine oil is changed. Some vehicles no longer have a transmission dipstick they need to be checked by an automotive professional (see owner’s manual).
Caution: Always install the correct transmission fluid. Using the wrong fluid can severely damage the unit.
