How can i tell if the transmission fluid is low

Check The Transmission Fluid, Is It Low? Check At Operating Temperature, Is The Fluid In The Cross Hatched Area Of The Dip Stick? Is It Touching The Dip Stick? If It Is Not On The Dip Stick It May Just Be Low, Or, After You Add Fluid To Top It Off (Get It In The Cross Hatched Area Of The Dip Stick) And It Still Will Not Go Into Gear Or Move The Vehicle Normally, The Clutches May Be Smoked (Shot, Ruined) Have An Experienced Transmission Mechanic Look At It To Tell For Sure. If You Could Get It To A Trans. Shop By Trailer, They May Take A Quick Look & Tell You If There Is Any Hope. Hope This Helps.

check to make sure manual shift linkage not loose disconnected or damaged.check transmission fluid also see if too low, transmission could be slipping lack or low on fluid,if all is good have transmission range sensor checked have vechicle code scan see if any shift pressure solenoid bad before assuming transmission has failed. if you buy second hand car taking a chance buying a lemon, if you just bought the car have honest mechanic check out transmission if bad owner sold car to you didnt tell you transmission bad i get refund find another car.

All I can tell you with the amount of info given is to check the trans fluid when in park and the engine is running and on level ground. Your most likely low on fluid, it takes Dexron III (Dexron three). Automatic transmission fluid expands as it gets hotter, so its low when cold and as warms up the fluid expands to the point where the fluid level is somewhat acceptable and can actually function. I would service your transmission immediately before any more damage occurs, those transmissions (4EAT) are not cheap, but I think the cheapest used junkyard transmissions go for around $800. Good luck!! I hope this info helps!

You might be low on transmission fluid. A transmissions fluid acts like a lubricant and as a hydrualic fluid. When the fluid is low sometimes the vehicle needs to spin at a faster rpm to initiate the shift. Check both the level and color of the fluid. It should be red. It's alright if its a little dirty, as long as you can still tell your looking at a red liquid you should be alright. Transmission fluid is properly check with the car at idle in park or neutral while on a level surface. The dipstick location varies from car to car but looks similar to the oil dipstick.

You do not need to check the fluid , the computer will let you know by means of the maintenance light if it is low.

That would mean that the over-drive unit in the rear extension-housing of the transmission is slipping and causing the engine to over-rev, (it could just be low on fluid or the filter in the transmission might be plugged up) and the transmission fluid level and condition of the transmission fluid should be checked out, and I believe that the transmission fluid level should be checked with the engine running and in "Neutral", (check the transmission dip-stick and it will tell you for sure) and do not forget to set the parking brake or block the tires or the vehicle might roll off on you. If the transmission is not low low on fluid but the fluid is dark or brown and smells like a burned up clutch or brakes then there is more serious damage to the transmission and it will most likely require a rebuild.

A transmission fluid and filter change might help but at this point it might already be too late for that to prevent the transmission from failing, but it is still worth a try even if just to inspect the transmission pan for excessive friction material and metal shavings or fragments.

If the transmission fluid looks alright and does not smell burnt, then the transmission will require further diagnostics to determine if the problem is a hydraulic or an electrical control related problem.

The red fluid is probably transmission fluid. Pick some up on your finger smell it and if possible compare it to known transmission fluid. You invariably have a leak. If you want to find the leak try this.

Locate a large piece of cardboard and place this under your cars engine compartment just after you garage it tonight. The cardboard will tell all on the leak location.

As far as adding trans fluid . . . you only need to ad fluid if it is low. The transmission is often refered to as a transaxle. Also transmission fluid is most commonly added via the transmission fluid dip stick hole via funnel. Be Careful not to over fill the transmission.

Good Luck

If you have not done so already, check the transmission fluid level. If you are low on fluid, there is a chance that adding fluid to the correct level may solve the problem. The fluid level should be checked with the car idling and the shift lever in neutral. There are two sets of Hi/Low marks on the transmission dipstick, one for Cold (car just started) and one for Hot (car running for 20 minutes or more). Use Hyundai recommended SPIII fluid. However, this does seem like a more serious transmission problem. Take the car to a qualified transmission mechanic.

The transmission line may have a crack in it or where the transmission line connects to the radiator may have gone loose causing the fluid lost. The transmission cooler is integrated with the radiator so there are two steel lines from the transmission to the radiator on the passenger side. Check the lines for any damages such as cracks or corrosion, and replace as needed. Good luck and hope this helps. try not to run the transmission low on fluid, damage to transmission will occur due to low transmission fluid = costly.
