Where do you add trans fluid and how do you know when it is full

He either added the trans fluid to the engine oil or he is checking the wrong dipstick. CHECK THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL to see that the trans fluid is not in the engine. If the engine oil is full of trans fluid, do NOT START the car and now you need to change the engine oil and also add the trans fluid to the trans. If engine opil is ok, be sure to find correct dip stick for trans fluid. They should be marked accordingly.

Doesn't have one , like most newer vehicles . Could have a cap on top of trans/axle to add fluid . Probably a plug on the side of trans/axle to check fluid level . Take out the plug and if transmission fluid drips out , it's full . Don't know why they are doing it that now .To make sure call the dealer . Or look at owners manual

Frist look to see if your trans has a plug in the bottom of your pan. If so drain your trans of fluid. If it doesn't you must loosen pan bolts and drain fluid from the sides of the pan it self. Then you must loosen and remove your bolts on your pan to get to the filter that is connected inside of trans either by bolt or clipped in place. remove filter and replace with new one only. Then replace your pan gasket with new one only. To keep pan gasket in place useing gasket sealer. make sure gasket is completely in place matching all holes. When tighting bolts Do not over tighten 20lbs torque is all that is required. Be sure all bolts are tightened at same torque. Replace fluid with required fluid that manafacture requiers for that vehicle. Pouring fluid into your transmission dip stick tube useing a small funnel. Replace only as much fluid as you have taken out. Do not over fill or serious damage is very possible to trans. once fluid is in transmission start your vehicle in park. check your dip stick on trans. If it doesn't read at full mark. Add more fluid until it does. #1 Once your at the full mark place your foot on brake and shift shifter through all gears park,rev, nutrual, drive. drive low, then back to park. #2Check your stick again to see if fluid is still at full. Add fluid if it is not full. and repeat #1 If your fluid is at full after going through your gears. Put car in drive and move forward slowly. It should move. If not repeat #1 #2 once trans is full and doesn't slip. It's safe to drive. Check trans at about 1 mile down road. If fluid is full your done. It is easier and much safer to take it to a garage if your not sure you are going to be able to do all this. It is safer for you to have it changed for under 75 dollars then to replace your transmission. Then to pay 2000 dollars to replace a screwed up transmission. They are damaged so easy and aren't at all easy to fix. So if in dought see a professional. Don't attempt it your self. Good luck

In an automatic transmission while the engine is running in park check the dipstick after the vehicle has reached normal operating temp. There is a mark for cold and hot. Since the fluid expands with high temps always check when hot to ensure you wouldn't add any excess fluid if you needed to add some as overfilling it would cause premature failure and expensive repairs

There is no dipstick on the 2.0L auto trans. You have to check it and/or fill it from under the car. There is a fill plug on the trans case that will just drip fluid when it is full.

THERE IS A PLUG UNDER THE CAR BY THE RIGHT AXLE WERE IT GOES INTO THE TRANS YOU PULL THE PLUG AND START THE CAR IF FLUID RUN OUT THEN ITS FULL IF NOT YOU ADD FLUID UNTIL IT DOES THERE IS A RED CAP ON THE TOP OF THE TRANS WERE YOU ADD THE FLUID THE CAR HAS TO BE LEVEL WHEN YOU DO THIS

YOU do not add. Take the car to the dealer they will drain the trans and refill it with the correct 16 and 1/2 quarts of ESSO ($42 a quart) trans fluid.
NOTE if you use red trans fluid in this vehicle it will not only void any and all warrartys it will also cause major trans failure.

there is a cap on front low on trans but you have to pull drain plug don worry nothing will come out unless trans is already full if it needs fluid none will come out i am a vw tech and i know that sounds off the wall but it is true

First check your owners manual if you have one if not, then follow this proceedure. With vehicle in park & ignition off, open hood & remove the dip stick from the trans, should be some markings on dip stick that is stamped w/check in park or check in neutral. There will also be some hash marks, cold add/full, hot add/full. If checking cold, fluid levle will should be between the add & full, if checking the fluid level after driving, w/the vechile still running, check the fluid level w/the vechile in park or neutral, depending on what is stamped on the dip stick, check the hot level, should be between add & full. If fluid level at htis point is on add, then add 500 ml of fluid, check level again and add as needed.

Hope this is helpful.

If u know u need to add trans fluid, I assume u found the dipstick to check the fluid level? If so, that's where u add the fluid, w/ engine running and using a funnel, slowly add it. Shift thru the gears slowly several times, and check level again. Don't overfill, it's bad for the tranny.
