    There isn't one it is checked through your computer and the check engine light should come on. Take to a tranny shop and ask them.

    Your transmission is sealed and has no dip stick, checking the fluid level properly involves using a factory scan tool.

    SOURCE: No Dip Stick for trans fluid on 98 Kia Sephia!

    Hi,
    A little more info is needed... I'm assuming your car is an automatic transmission.
    So the dip stick is missing? Or can you not find the location of the dipstick? The owner's manual will help you to locate it. If it is missing from the tube, I would recommend calling an auto salvage yard to get another one.
    If your auto is a standard transmission, you can have the oil checked by a mechanic if you suspect it is low... rare, unless it's leaking.
    Hope this helps...

    Do a 2010 Jeep Liberty Have a Automatic transmission dip stick?

    Alot of the newer vehicles have maintenance free transmisions so they dont have dip sticks. And if it is maintenance free it will tell you under the hood.

    Where is the dip stick to check the transmision fluid how do you check the transmision fluid?

    2005 Chevy Malibu has a sealed transmission with no dipstick, so you can't check the transmission fluid level without getting underneath the car and looking at the transmission itself.

    Locate the transmission. Look for a small plug with a hex bolt on the passenger side of the transmission, adjacent to the passenger side front tire.

    Start the engine and let it warm up to regular operating temperature. Remove the hex bolt from the plug hole in the side of the transmission with a wrench or socket. If transmission fluid flows freely from the hole, the fluid level is correct. If it barely drips, or no fluid comes out, the transmission fluid level is low.

    Where do i put transmision fluid i a kis sadona automatic

    Remove the Transmission dip stick and use a funnel to add fluid in the same tube the dip stick comes out of. With the vehicle running on level ground and warm, remove the dipstick and see where the fluid level is at before you add anything. If it is between the 2 marks on the dip stick, normally marked Hot and Cold, then your fluid level is good. If it is at the bottom mark add fluid, about a pint will do, to bring the fluid between the marks. Then see if you can get it to shift.

    Where to find transmision dip stick

    there is no dipstick, you can access the transaxle by lifting the car up. It is located on the drivers side right by the wheel. Remove the bolt at the top of the pan, if the fluid dribbles out there is enough, if not you need to fill it.

    WHERE DO I PUT THE TRANSMISION FLUID

    you have to locate the tranny dip stick and pull it out- then get a funnel that will fit down the hole- and slowly pour in tranny fliud. check level by putting dip stick back in (allow time for fuild to drip down out of the tube) make sure engine is running and is warmed up while reading fluid level on dipstick. Make sure it is the tranny dip stick and not the oil dipstick. oil is usually yellow and says oil on it- Trans is usually red.

    When changing the transmision filter how much fkuid do I need to put back in the transmision after the new filter is in

    Figure on having on hand about 12 quarts, but always use the dip stick to check the fluid level...I know they are hard to read, but if you have some old carbon paper that we use to use before computer, you can wipe the paper on the stick and it is a trick to be able to see fluid on the stick better.

    Transmision level fluid Baleno esteem 2002 susuki

    The proper fluid level is marked on the dip stick. With the engine running and in park, raise the hood and remove the dip stick from the autotrans filler tube. With a clean rag, wipe down the stick and then place the dip stick all the way back in the tube again, and then pull it out once more.
    Holding the stick level, you can now read what the fluid level is.

    If you add any fluid, do so in small amounts, such as a half a pint at a time.

    Do not add fluid with engine running.
