Fluid - M/T: Testing and Inspection

TRANSAXLE GEAR OIL LEVEL INSPECTION

Inspect transaxle for evidence of leakage. Check the gear oil level by removing the filler plug. If the oil is contaminated, it is necessary to replace it with new oil.
1. Remove oil filter plug and check level with finger.
2. Oil level must be up to the fill hole. If it is below the hole, add oil until it runs out, then reinstall the plug.
3. Replace the oil if the transaxle gear oil is noticeably dirty, or it is not of a suitable viscosity.
