How
to
Add
Fluid:
Refer to
the
Maintenance
Schedule
to
determine
what
kind of transaxle fluid
to
use. See the
Index
under
Fluids
&
Lubricants.
If
the
fluid
level
is low,
add
only enough
of
the proper fluid
to
bring
the
level
into
the
cross-hatched
area
on
the dipstick.
It doesn’t
take
much fluid, generally less
than a pint. Don’t overfill.
We recommend
you
use
only
fluid
labeled
DEXRON@-IIE,
because
fluids
with
that
labelare made
especially
for
your
automatic
transaxle.
Damage
caused by fluid other than
DEXRON@-IIE
is not
covered by your
new
vehicle
warranty.
After
adding fluid, recheck
the
fluid
level as described
under
How
to
Check.
When
the correct fluid
level
is obtained,
push
the
dipstick
back
in
all
the way.
Manual
Transaxle
Fluid
When
to
Check:
A
good
time
to
have
it
checked
is when
the
engine
oil
is changed.
However,
the
fluid
in
your
manual
transaxle
doesn’t
require
changing.
How
to
Check:
Because this operation
can
be a little
difficult, you
may choose
to
have
this
done
at
an
Oldsmobile
dealership
Service Department.
If
you do it
yourself,
be
sure
to
follow
all
the
instructions
here, or you could
get a false
reading
on
the dipstick.
