there is no place for you to check it. the dealership will check it for you. and it only holds 6.5 quart's. if you have the 3.0L engine.
There is a dipstick under the hood of a Cadillac Catera that you can pull to check your transmission fluid. You should do this when the engine is hot.
There is no dipstick to check the transmission fluid on a 1998 Cadillac Catera. It can be checked by opening the fill plug on the side of the transmission. If you are at that point you might as well change the fluid if you have over 70000 miles.
The Catera transmission does not have a dip stick or gauge to check the oil. The transmission is a sealed unit, there is no need to add oil.

Start checking out your engine and transmission mounts. Check the rubber to make sure it isn't torn.
where do you check the transmission fluid on 2000 cadillac sts
You cannot adjust the idle in a 1998 Cadillac Catera. It is computer controlled. If the idle is not at 750 rpms then there is another problem with the engine. Check for codes with an OBD2 tester.
Check your crank shaft sensor first.
there is not a good way for you to check it, but a dealership can check it for you. the transmission also holds only 6.5 .qts if you have the 3.0l
Oh man! 'You' CANNOT change the tranny fluid unless you have a special mechanic's tool and it most be put up on a lift to do so! The cadillac catera has what is called a SEALED TRANSMISSION ofcourse so you have to take it to a shop. My grandson just bought a used one and we just wanted to check the fluid level and had to take it in for even that!! God Bless, grandmom in N.J.
