Fluid
When to Check:
A
good
time to have it checked
is
when the engine oil is changed. However,
the fluid in your manual transmission doesn’t require changing.
How
to Check:
Because this operation can be a little difficult, you may choose to have this
done at your dealership Service Department.
If
you
do
it yourself, be sure
to
follow all the instructions here, or
you
could
get a false reading.
