Volvo 1991 740 Model
NOTE:
The engine should be idling when checking transmission fluid
level.
Check the oil level as follows:
Park the car on level surface with the engine idling.
Slowly move the selector lever through all gear positions and then to position P. Wait 2 minutes before
checking the oil level. As the illustration shows, the dipstick has a "Cold" and a "Warm" side. The oil level
should be between the MIN and MAX marks. Wipe the dipstick with a clean cloth.
Warning! The oil may be very
hot
Do not use rags that could leave lint on the dipstick.
The transmission is topped up via the dipstick tube.
The space between the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick corresponds to 0.5 US qt (0.5 liter). Do not fill
the transmission with too much oil, since this can result in oil being ejected from the transmission.
Too little oil, on the other hand, can negatively affect transmission operation, particularly in very cold
weather.
