This is a 4t40E transaxle and it has no dipstick. The way the fluid is checked is through the check plug like a manual trans is checked. With the engine running and the transaxle at the correct temp the oil should be at the bottom of the hole. The only way to check the transaxle temp is with a scan tool. So As you can tell you need to take this vehicle to a transmission shop to have the oil checked.
