There is no definite way to check the ATF in a 2000 Alero. There is a filler cap on the left side of the transaxle, but no dip stick. I changed the filter and fluid in mine recently and measured the drained fluid best I could and replaced it with a like amount plus one and a half quarts. This brought the level that was visible in the filler hole to about two inches below the top. A poor system, at best.

JUST REMOVE ALL OFF THE BOLTS, THEN THE PAN WILL COME OFF TO REPLACE GASKET. HAVE A DRAIN PAN UNDER IT YOU WILL LOSE ABOUT 6 QTS ATF.

Check the fuse first. Then check the resistance of the Defroster grid w/ohm meter. As long as you measure anything BUT infinate, its ok. If ok replace the timer/switch module in the dash panel.

Use Low Viscosity ATF, Hight Viscosity ATF or additives create fluid retention which cause the servos, solenoids to seize up causing shifting problems.

Good luck and hope this helps.

no it has a sight plug on the right side half shaft it is a 11mm. pull the plug if the atf comes out you are full. if not take some atf and fill tell it comes out of the plug.

It is on the evaporator case and is held in with 2 screws.

If you have the 3.4L engine, easy, if you have the 2.4L HARD! Best left to a professional.

Replace the lifter, but before putting in new ones soak them in lighter weight engine oil or EOS that the dealer has. if you are watching your budget you ATF. I just purcased a 2000 alero with the same problem. That is what I am going to do and replace tensioner guides.
