actually he asked for the 1997 catera which has no dip stick it is a sealed system. you cannot check it I have a 1998 Catera and oil filter is on the underside of the motor and can be accesses on the drivers side, under the car. I think the transmission is maintenance free unless you see a leak. If you have a leak you have to pull the pan to refill. The oil filter is locater in a small houseing on the rear lower side of the engine on the drivers side. It is nearlly directlly above the crank position sensor. The filter is held in by a black plastic screw on cover that will be easilly seen when under the car and on the driver's side. It will take......a 32MM wreench or socket to remove the the cover. Do NOT try to use anythin other than the appropriate socket or wrench for yu may destroy the outer part of the cap.
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.
these have a sealed unit tranny. No fluid needs added....maint. free
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.
Surprise! There isn't one! There is a plug on the side of the Transmission pan. The transmission is full when fluid starts draining from the removed plug.
Where is the transmission plug on a 1998 cadillac
Oil dipstick is in the regular spot for most cars trans. The catera did not come with one it is checked under the car
No where! It doesn't have one. The transmission is a sealed unit. Tha vehicle needs to be raised and level. There is a plug on the right side of the pan that needs to removed, the oil level is chaecked and refilled at that point.
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.
I don't think you can change it. I have a 1999 catera and my transmission fluid has to be changed at the dealer.
the oil pump on a cadillac catera 1997 two 2001 is located on in the oil pan under the engian
were do you put the transmission fluid i cant find it
where can i add transmission fluid on a cadillac catera 1998 you don't, they are maint. free so no dip stick. if there is a problem with it, dealer or trans shop.
