With automatic tranny, you should have the dipstick tube and it is caped. Note the dipstick in the picture. 9336 . Did you read your owners manual? Make sure the dipstick will work with your vehicle. You don't leave the dip stick in. Hopefully the dip stick comes with instructions. Your owners manual says to check automatic tranny fluid, engine running. Hope info helps.
most vehicle auto trans are checked while the engine is running and trans is warmed up to normal operating temp. except hondas which are checked with engine off. pull out the dipstick and the fluid level should be somewhere in between the hash marks. if its low just top off a quarter quart at a time and watch the fluid residue on hash mark on the end of dipstick.
Looking at the motor from the front, in the middle all the way to the
back, near the windshild. It has a red o-ring handle.
Three speed 3T40 transaxles (2.2L only) will have a dipstick, whereas
the four speed 4T40-E (2.2L or 2.4L) will not have a dipstick. The
4T40-E has an oil check plug located above the pan in the center of the
torque converter side of the transaxle; it is recommended to check fluid
only when a leak has occured.
you have to locate the tranny dip stick and pull it out- then get a funnel that will fit down the hole- and slowly pour in tranny fliud. check level by putting dip stick back in (allow time for fuild to drip down out of the tube) make sure engine is running and is warmed up while reading fluid level on dipstick. Make sure it is the tranny dip stick and not the oil dipstick. oil is usually yellow and says oil on it- Trans is usually red.
You have to check the fluid from the bottom on the back side of the
transmission with a special tool. So if you don't have a way of getting
under the car or have a special tool to do it with then you won't be
able to. You also have to fill the fluid using this same hole.
The transmission fluid needs to be replaced and checked at a transmission shop or the dealer. In the manual is the information you need to when the transmission is due for service to keep your car running 100% and to keep the warranty valid. Good luck and hope this helps.
It's right next to the air filter and behind the radiator fan and to the right of the oil dipstick. The transmissions is black and the oils is yellow. If it's a manual, there's no dipstick there. If not check close to the forewall towards the back of the engine.
