Oil Level Check

NOTE: A check of ATF level is not normally required during scheduled services. If an oil leak is found, perform the oil level check procedure after repairs are completed.

CAUTION: When checking the oil level, be careful not to enter dust, foreign matters, etc. from fill hole.

Remove the ATF Injection hole (eyebolt) (A).

Eyebolt tightening torque:

Add ATF SP-IV 700cc to the ATF injection hole.
Start the engine. (Don't step on brake and accelerator simultaneously.)
Confirm that the temperature of the A/T oil temperature sensor is 50~60°C (122~140°F) with the GDS.
Shift the select lever slowly from "P" to "D", then "D" to "P" and repeat one more at idle.
CAUTION: Stop in each gear position for 3 seconds.
Lift the vehicle, then remove the oil level plug (A) from the valve body cover.

CAUTION: At this time, the vehicle must be a horizontal state.
If the oil flows out of the overflow plug in thin steady stream, the oil level is correct.
Then finish the procedure and tighten the oil plug.
NOTE:
Oil level check (excess or shortage) method
- Excess: Drain quantity exceed 900cc for tow minutes. (50~60°C (122~140°F))
- Shortage: No drain.
CAUTION: If there is no damage at the automatic transaxle, oil cooler or oil cooler hoses and the drain plug is tight, ATF must flow out after performing above 1 to 7 procedures. After performing above 1 to 7 procedures, if the oil doesn't drop out, inspect the automatic transaxle assembly for oil leaks.

CAUTION: Replace the gasket before reinstalling the oil level plug.
