Check the oil level a couple of
minutes after shutting off the engine.
Make sure the car is on level ground.
Remove the transmission filler bolt.
The oil level should be up to the edge
of the bolt hole. Feel inside the bolt
hole with your finger. If you do not
feel any oil, slowly add oil until it
starts to run out of the hole. Reinstall
the filler bolt and tighten it securely.

Only use an SF or SG grade motor
oil, with a weight of 10W-30 or
10W-40.
The transmission should be drained
and refilled with new oil every 24
months or 30,000 miles (48,000 km),
whichever comes first. Shorten the
service interval to every 12 months or
15,000 miles under severe driving
conditions (see page 140).
