1 = max. at 80°C ATF temperature
2 = min. at 80°C ATF temperature
3 = max. at 20 - 30°C ATF temperature
N o t e
The level of ATF in the transmission varies with the temperature of the fluid.
The marks (max. and min.) on the reservoir are indexed for an ATF temperature of
80° C. However, at temperatures between 20 and 30° C, checking the ATF level is
easier and more accurate. The maximum ATF level is
between the two high markers at 80°C
Mare sure the car is level, start the engine when cold, move through the gears and put it in N with the engine running for 2 minutes so that the torque converter is full. Check level for 20C and add fluid if required. Check again a few days later.
