Checking Fluid Level: Transaxle/Transmission

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1994 Mitsubishi Precis, 1993 Mitsubishi Precis, 1992 Mitsubishi Precis, 1991 Mitsubishi Precis, and 1990 Mitsubishi Precis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Park vehicle on level area. Ensure oil is at normal operating temperature, parking brake is engaged, and engine is at idle. Move gear selector through each position, stopping briefly at each selection.
  2. Place gear selector in Neutral, and clean area around dipstick tube. Ensure fluid level is between lower and upper marks, but never over upper mark, in HOT range. Add or drain fluid if necessary.
CAUTION: If severe darkening of fluid and strong odor are noted, change fluid and filter, and adjust bands.
