Unfortunately, you don't. As odd as it sounds (I'm a car guy and a staunch GM supporter but they really goofed on this one) it is a sealed system. Yep, you guessed right, gotta go to the dealer and pay lots of cash for the service. Owners manual says service at 50K under heavy conditions (hot, city driving or towing), 100K otherwise. I quizzed the local dealer (Michael Stead in Walnut Creek, CA) and they recommend doing it at 45K (?!) but definitely at 60K. I just hit 60K and I'm holding out.
A Mopar special tool and a star scan is required to check the transmission fluid
It has no stick.
You can't, it is a sealed transmission. The fluid is supposed to be good for 100k miles and then changed.
No since there is no need to add transmission fluid unless there is a leak and should take it to a dealer and there is also a fluid life indicator message
Same place you check the fluid level.
The Honda Rincon uses engine oil as transmission fluid so when you change your engine oil or check your engine oil level you are also changing or checking the transmission fluid at the same time.
You cannot check the fluid level as the transmission is a sealed unit. A GM dealer can check it if you have a leak. If you have no leak then it is fine.
no, it is a self contained system ...Have a caddy tech check it from underneath
The 2005 Cadillac CTS has a 6-speed manual.
The 2005 Cadillac Escalade has a 4-speed automatic.
There could be a transmission fluid leak. Check the seals. They may be loose or worn out.
