Where to check tranny fluid, cant find dipstick??

Answer This Question
  • Anonymous Mar 18, 2022

    modern cars now have no stick
    they makers of cars learned that most wrecked transmissions were cause by customers.
    over filling it and now it foams up and wrecks bearings inside, air is not any kind of proper lubricaten
    so a shop (real) drains it , then adds fresh by careful measured volumes,
    and there my be 3 or more transmissions types used in car so we the spec on that and read it and do it correctly.
    the service manual on your car explains all this , best is read it. first then ask questions.
    learn to read that , and not ask folks here that have NO IDEA at all what is there.
    best is leave it be.
    or get a real shop (USA go to ASE shops only) not jiffyboobs.

    or go here

    RTM chapter transmission service, read carefully,
    some cares have 3 trans choice, 1 for gas, 1 diesel , and 1 or 2 for 4wd, we can see what is under hood'
    why not just ask your mech, this question I bet he answers it like 10 times a day.

    the answer is DEPENDS!

1999 Isuzu Troopers w/automatic transmissions do not come with a dipstick. It is a sealed transmission just like a manual transmission. The fluid must be checked by removing the fill plug. Emergency brake on, engine running,warmed up ,vehicle in neutral. When removing the fill plug ,which is on the side of transmission- at the top, fluid should slightly drip out. If fluid doesnt drip out you need to add fluid. You will need a small hand pump to fill it.

It wont down shift
Whens the last time you changed tranny filter and fluid. it may be the vacuum modulator or your bands inside the tranny. Pull out your tranny dipstick when running and check level of tranny fluid. Add dextron II of needed. Smell the tranny fluid on dipstick to see if tranny fluid is burndt. if you change filter and fluid, add a can of trans-x to the fluid. Will help seals in tranny.

The car will not shift into another gear it seems like, it accelerates really slow, does get to about 30 given time to speed up, but if peddle is pressed down to far the RPM's just red line. I have turned...
hi
your automatic transmission may be extremely low on fluid. check the automatic transmission fluid. go get three quarts at auto parts store type dextron II or equivalent.. make sure you get the right type. open the hood, start looking for the transmission fluid dipstick that it shows in the owners manual. if not it may be listed on the dipstick in the engine compartment. start the car set parking brake and check the dipstick with the car running. pull the dipstick out and wipe it off , replace, take it back out and look at the end of the dipstick. there should be fluid on the dipstick and it should be in between or right at the top line. the tranny fluid goes right in that dipstick hole you pulled the dipstick out of it takes a special funnel, theyre usually red, you can pick that up at the auto parts store too, tell them you need a funnel that will fill up the tranny fluid with a tiny end. theyll know. If theres no fluid showing on the dipstick you can safely add one quart of fluid and then let it run a minute and check fluid again. now fill in smaller increments at a time (1/2 cup) untill the fluid shows in between the lines on the dipstick. put a piece of cardboard under the engine overnight to see if its leaking and where. it may need a new gasket or the tranny cooler lines are leaking, study whats loose on the lines or get a haynes or chilton manual and put a new tranny pan gasket on it. its not too hard , just takes time and patience. if theres tranny fluid already in the car I suggest taking it in to be put on a computer for further diagnosis, but this may get you going.
good luck

How do you check the tran" fluid on a 2004 verona
If you have the tranny dipstick, then run car in park, let warm up a little and then check the dipstick.
Not all models have dipsticks. Especially on the foreign cars. On many of the foreign cars, you have to raise/jack the car up, then look on tranny, there will be an upper and a lower plug, remove the upper plug, stick your finger in the hole; The fluid level should be at top of the hole and you should be able to feel it with your finger. If you cant, then get a bottle of fluid recommended for you car, put a tip cap on it, attach a rubber hose to the tip and fill it to top of the hole.

No dipstick to put transmission fluid into
HI, this transmission is a sealed type. you will need to purchase a special tool from the dealership to fill this unit properly.

Contact the nearest Audi dealer for this fill tool.

Wheres the tranny dip stick
If it is an automatic, the end of the dipstick should have a yellow plastic handle which should be located to the right rear of the engine compartment (facing car). If it is a straight drive, there is no dipstick. You will have to find the fill plug and take it out. The gear oil should come up to the fill hole.

How do i check tranny fluid?
There is no dipstick or way for the owner to check tranny fluid. It has to be brought to dealer and left overnight. They have to plug it in under a specific set of conditions to check fluid. Expect to pay about 40 dollars a liter for tranny fluid. I just had this done about 2 weeks ago

Manual transmission, but a short red tipped dipstick,looks like tranny fluid?
I have a 1998 saturn with a manual transmission and it took me quite some time to locate the dip stick. it is located on top of the gearbox close to the brake resevoir where the linkeage connects. it has a red plastic clip on top of the dip stick and submerges verticaly into the gearbox and is about six inches long. the red clip can easliy be hidden with black dirt and not seen. do not confuse this with the clutch reservoir fluid located to the right of the brake master cylnder. good luck.
