Fluid - M/T: Testing and Inspection

TRANSAXLE GEAR OIL LEVEL INSPECTION
Inspect each component for evidence of leakage. Check the gear oil level by removing the filler plug. If the oil is contaminated, it is necessary to replace it with new oil.
1. With the vehicle parked on a level surface, remove the drain plug and make sure that oil level is the same level as the plug hole.
2. Check that the transaxle gear oil is not noticeably dirty, and that it is of a suitable viscosity.
