If it is an automatic transmission, then it should have a dipstick to check the fluid level. Depending on the make and model, the location of this dipstick will vary. If it is a manual transmission, then the fluid level really can't be checked and it will not have a dipstick.
The 1974 model 203 transfer case has a fluid capacity of 5.5 quarts. You can check the fluid level from the same hole that you fill the transfer case.
drop the oil out the drain hole and remove the pan to gain access to the tranny filter. Replace the filter and put back the amount of fluid you drained out. Go to the dealer and they will check it's level for you.
To check the Automatic transmission fluid on the 2001 BMW X5 3.0i model, there is simply no dipstick to look for. Answer: The owner's manual will discuss this in very limited wording in regards to the AT fluid of this particular model found in the A-Z topics of the Table of Contents. This model comes with a "Lifetime Fluid" sealed in the automatic transmission casing, thus there is no need to check the fluid level. Check with your local maintenance personnel to further substantiate this answer.Read more: How_do_you_check_transmission_fluid_on_BMW_x5
It depends on the yr of the vehicle. Earlier models, pre 2002, had a dipstick and you could check fluid levels and top-up the fluid. Later model transmissions are a 'sealed unit' and according to Ford are designed to go 150,000 m without a fluid change. (You can tell that you have this type of transmission as it has no dipstick.). Some ford dealerships, I believe, will change the fluid at 30,000 m intervals, but I guess if you are willing to part with $180 they'll do it whether it is needed or not. The critical factor with these trannies seems to be the volume of fluid in the tranny. The fluid is pumped into the tranny through the drain plug with a special adapter tool. To get the amount right the tranny has to be at the right operating temperature due to the expansion of the fluid at higher temps. Dealerships and Tranny shops use a scanner to obtain the temp of the fluid so they can accurately guage the right amount of fluid. For the home mechanic this is a very difficult procedure and ill advised to attempt if there are no issues with the tranny. I attempted this and spent a day trying to get the level of fluid right. Without the right level the tranny would stick, crunch and thud. I eventually got it to work well enough for me to drive the explorer to a Tranny shop and was charged $70 for a flush, new filter and fluid. Also, note that the fluid needed is specifically Mercon V. At a local Auto parts place this was nearly $4 a qt. I ended up using 8 qts trying to get the right level of fluid. For $70 it's a no brainer. Leave it to a pro, not necessarily a dealer but a reputable shop that can do the job and not charge an arm and a leg.
A Mopar special tool and a star scan is required to check the transmission fluid in any of the newer model dodge, chrysler, and jeeps. The fluid level is very temperature sensitive It is impossible to get the level correct with out a scan tool.
Read your owner's manual you can check the fluid level on bottom of pan with #30 star bit to add fluid you have to have fluid pump to put fluid in bottom plug on pan
Checking the fluid level is done from underneath the vehicle. There is a plug located in the side of the transaxle housing unscrew the setscrew and put your ginger in, if you can feel the fluid right at the level or a little comes out then it is at the right level, much below this then add some fluid.

You cant check the transmission fluid yourself , you have to take it to a shop and get them to check it . It doesn't have a stick , it has two things on the trans ,one to check the fluid and one to drain it ..
