Checking Fluid Level

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 19 other vehicles, including the 1987 Pontiac Sunbird, 1987 Pontiac Grand Am, 1987 Pontiac Firebird, 1987 Pontiac Fiero, and 1987 Pontiac 6000. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Check lubricant level at filler plug hole on side of transmission. Lubricant should be level with bottom of filler plug hole. Add lubricant as necessary to bring to correct level.

NOTE: Check fluid level when transmission/transaxle is cold. If hot, fluid may flow from filler hole when plug is removed. This could result in burned hands or incorrect level readings.
