Fluid Level Set After Service

FLUID LEVEL SET AFTER SERVICE
1. Add transaxle fluid through the fill cap hole prior to adjusting the fluid level. The amount of fluid to add should be based on the type of service done. If the bottom pan was removed, add 7 liters (7.4 quarts). If a new torque converter was installed, add 2.5 liters (2.6 quarts). If a complete overhaul was done, refill the system with 10 liters (10.6 quarts). Use DEXRON(R)-III transaxle fluid only.
2. Check the transaxle fluid level.
3. Add additional fluid through the fill cap hole in 0.5 liter increments until the fluid comes out through the plug hole.
4. Allow the fluid to finish draining out through the plug hole, then install the fluid level plug.
Tighten the fluid level plug to 12 Nm (106 inch lbs.).
5. When the fluid level setting procedure is completed, wipe any fluid from the transaxle case with a rag or shop towel. Also, check that the fluid fill rap and the vent tube are properly installed.
