No dip stick. That's supposed to be a "sealed" transmission, meaning that you shouldn't need to service it; but this is the real world so we all know better.
There is an access plug at the side of the transmission just for checking the fluid level. You'll need to either have someone show you where it is or you'll need to get the book so you can find it.
How do you check the transmission fluid on a 2003 Saturn vue
I've been told that it can only be done at a Saturn dealership...
I dont think manual transmission cars use transmission fluid.
You don't "pour" it in. Saturn uses a "sealed" transmission, meaning that you don't check the fluid level using a dipstick. There is an access hole on the side of the transmission.
There is a red dipstick.
6.9 quarts , fill it until fluid comes out the fluid check plug , which is adjasent to the oil plug.Car should be warm and in drive.
Same place you check the fluid level. If there is no place to check it, then it is a sealed transmission, which needs no service. At least that is the idea.
Same place you check the fluid level.
Take it to a Goodwrench certfied shop. The transmission in the Saturn Vue has no dipstick, so requires service by a certified mechanic. Unless you have a leak, which you would obviously see, there is no need to check the fluid level.

To check the transmission fluid in a 2004 Saturn Vue, first ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and the engine is running. Locate the transmission dipstick, usually found near the back of the engine bay, and remove it. Wipe it clean, reinsert it fully, then remove it again to check the fluid level; it should be within the marked range. If necessary, add the appropriate type of transmission fluid through the dipstick tube.
You can not check the transmission fluid on the 2002 L200 or L300, due to this transmission is a sealed transmission. I bought my L200 new and this is one of the new transmissions Saturn was using from Germany. My question at this point is when does the transmission fluid need to be change. Mine has 100k miles plus. I have a chiltons manual on this particular model and this manual gives very ggod directions on how to change the fluid, filter etc. But when. Is 100k miles time to change the fluid and filter. Now I know where to get this answer, call our local Saturn dealer and ask the question.
