Checking Fluid Level

Check fluid level with transaxle at operating temperature. Ensure engine is off and vehicle is leveled. Remove fill plug on side of transaxle case. Fluid level should be at bottom of fill hole. On all models, tighten oil drain plug to 30 ft. lbs. (40 N.m) and oil filler plug to 33 ft. lbs. (45 N.m).
