Some cars don't have a transmission oil dipstick. You are just supposed to replace the transmission fluid at how many miles the manual tells you.Check the manual to see when the transmission fluid needs to be replaced.

  • Anonymous Apr 17, 2011

    So when you reach the specified miles how do you replace it ? Can you do it yourself or does it have to go to a dealer?

  • Anonymous Apr 17, 2011

    If you want you can do it yourself. First find the transmission oil pan and put something underneath that your going to catch the oil with. Remove the transmission oil pan. Clean the pan and their is a magnet that collects pieces of metal, so clean it to. You can clean or replace the oil pan gasket. You should also replace the transmission filter and filter gasket. Put the transmission oil pan and transmission filter back on and tighten to the specified torque. Then put in the recommended amount fluid. Its way cheaper than bringing your car to a mechanic.

How to check and add transmission fluid to a Volvo c70

The '01 C70 does have a tiny A/T dipstick, located under the large wiring bundle near the battery, under the radiator hose. It is very short, small and burried. Look very very carefully. I missed it until taking out the radiator hoses.

Dear Sir, I have a 2001 C-70 convertable and it shifts hard. I want to check the transmission fluid and possible add some if needed but I don't know what type of fluid to put in or where to put it.I don't...

Access to the transmission dip stick is not easy. It is hidden deep under tube and wiring beneath the air intake tube near the battery, it has a yellow top labelled 'Trans' and has a clip that secures the top in place. Check the fluid level when the engine is running and the transmission is in 'park'. If low find some suitable hose to locate it into the dip stick tube and then fit a funnel in the end of this 'extension'. The fluid specified is AW5, Volvo part number 1161540-8, do not use anything else as some fluids do not mix well. Add fluid about a pint a time and check the level each time.
