How to Add Fluid

Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine what

kind of transmission fluid to use. See “Recommended

Fluids and Lubricants” in the Index.

Add fluid only after checking the transmission fluid while

it is hot. (A cold check is used only as a reference.)

If the fluid level is low, add only enough of the proper

fluid to bring the level up to the HOT area for a hot

check. It doesn’t take much fluid, generally less than

one pint (0.5 L). Don’t overfill.

NOTICE:

We recommend you use only fluid labeled

DEXRON

-III, because fluid with that label is

made especially for your automatic transmission.

Damage caused by fluid other than DEXRON

-III

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.

When to Check and Change

A good time to have it checked is when the engine

oil is changed. Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to

determine when to change your transmission fluid.

See “Scheduled Maintenance Services” in the Index.

How to Check

Because this operation can be a little difficult, you may

choose to have this done at your Chevrolet dealership

service department.

If you do it yourself, be sure to follow all the

instructions here, or you could get a false reading.

NOTICE:

Too much or too little fluid can damage your

transmission. Too much can mean that some of

the fluid could come out and fall on hot engine

parts or exhaust system parts, starting a fire.

Too little fluid could cause the transmission to

overheat. Be sure to get an accurate reading

if you check your transmission fluid.
