SOURCE: landcruiser auto transmission,,how to check fluid level

when you open your hood look in the back of the motor on the left side.. you should see a stick with a circle on the end of it for your finger have you vehicle running warmed up that means let it run for 10 or 15 min. and then pull the stick out.. wipe it off real good. stick it back in all the way.. pull it back out and hold it horizontally and check it.. it's sometimes hard to read because it has bubbles on it.. try it a couple of times to get an accurate reading good-luck ray

SOURCE: transmission fluid level check 02 jetta tdi auto

VW didn't put a "dipstick" on the trans for whatever reason. You technically have to use the VW Vag-Com scanner to properly check the trans fluid level as VW says it has to be checked at a specific temperature. But there is a "shade-tree" workaround. Start the car and leave the engine running the throughout the entire procedure. You have to get the trans fluid warm-a little under normal operating temp. 95F-104F is what you want-you can attain this after letting the car idle for 8 or so minutes. Continuing, leave the trans in park, and make sure you are on as level of a surface as possible. Then loosen the allen plug on the bottom of the trans pan. You will then see another plug. Remove this plug. Fluid should just trickle out of the hole if it is at the proper level. If it trickles out, you are good. If it doesn't you need to add fluid. Add VW spec ATF through the fill port.The fill port on the top front of the trans is capped off by a red cap and is very visible. Very carefully pry the cap off and then wiggle the plug out. I'd highly suggest having a spare red cap on hand-VW dealer has them. Then you can pour fluid into the trans. Add a little bit at at time, and all the while watching for the fluid to tricke out of the trans plug hole. When it trickles out, replace the inner plug and then the outer plug. That's it. Recheck after driving the car for a few miles. FYI- A flud and filter swap on the the VW auto trans takes 3 liters, so keep that in perspective. I hope this helps you out.

SOURCE: Transmission fluid type and level

This is complicated.... Ok, your right, no dip stick is there! This is how it works.
Underneath the car, there is a plug (11mm) on the transmission case on the passenger side. It is about 3" up from the pan edge and on the front side of the case. With the engine running in PARK, remove this plug. If trans fuild doesn't run out of the hole, the level is low. Pour it in the hole on top (where the red cap is) until the fluid runs out - all while the car is running. Once it is roughly dribbling out, the trans is considered full. replace plug. Your done!!

SOURCE: proper way to check transmission fluid

You always check transmission fluid with it running and in park,If your dip stick has a place on it for cold use it cold,Other wise it should be on the full mark,you might want to look under your jeep for any new leaks!

Testimonial: "thanks alot, thats what I thought, no leaks that I can see, I guess they didn't fill it all the way back up"

2009 Jeep Patriot transmission fluid fill. How much fluid is required to fill the transmission as if the car was new, as this is a new transmission. Thanks.

no transmission stated, A/T or M/T? fluid implies A./T , lube implies m/t so automatic but which one?? the CVT?
they have options.
the fsm covers this. lost that?
https://www.techauthority.com/en-US/Pages/Home.aspx
the steps are in the book,

is the TC dry, the main torque converter?
surely you know that there are steps on a true dry box.
that are not related to operators manual at all.
nor covered under , simple service. (drain and fill)
it's covered under new box and new empty converter.
most are first prefill then using a scan tool we check the temperature of the ATF and set the levels carefully with the temperature chart.

here is the last line in install
Use only MOPAR® CVTF +4 fluid. Use of any other type of automatic transmission fluid may cause damage to the CVT

the simple service amount is 8 pints, 4 quarts and is NOT the overhauled
amount at all as he TC holds lots more,
i have 2008 CD FSM but the SVG code does not run on new computers.

ok , have old xp laptop
and can view svg, now.

here is your answer
but this forum sux so it shrinks all photos to useless.state
so what does it say?
line 3b states...
17.1 pints (not quarts or liter) if overhauled.
that is off the real FSM. not clones or other bs.
BINGO..

2009 Jeep Patriot transmission cooler?

patriots have all kinds of cooling problems,make sure that you have enough tranny fluid in it and remember your torque converter uses about 4 quarts,the tranny has a cooler in the radiator,replace the radiator with one that has 2 rows of cooling,your radiator is going to die just like the rest of patriots

How do I check the level of fluid on a transmission for a jeep patriot 2007, it doest have a stick!!! to check it

Go underneath and look at tranny, There will be an upper filler plug and a lower drain plug. You can get top and hose for your gear oil / tranny fluid and fill. The level of the fluid should be exactly at bottom of hole
