Fluid Level Check

Your vehicle is equipped with a capped transmission oil fill tube that is sealed and it should not be tampered with.

Your authorized dealer has the proper tools to ensure that the fluid level is set properly.

CAUTION!
Using a transmission fluid other than the manufacturer’s recommended fluid may cause deterioration in transmission shift quality and/or torque converter shudder. Using a transmission fluid other than that recommended by the manufacturer will require more frequent fluid and filter changes. Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in “Maintaining Your Vehicle” for further information.
