Your car probably has no Transmission Fluid dipstick. For whatever reasons, Pontiac did away with them early on in the Sunfire's existence.
To check your trans fluid, there should be a fill plug under the car in the transmission. To check the level, remove the plug, stick your finger in the hole, remove your finger. If it's wet with fluid, the level is OK. If not, you need to add fluid.
To do this, you'll have to get the car up on jackstands or ramps, but preferably on a lift so the car remains level. Please Use Caution! Cars falling on people is a BAD thing.
as far as i know you cant check the transmission fluid on a 2000 Pontiac sunfire. It uses dexcool automatic transmission fluid and very rarley needs to be changed, i have a manual shift and it never has to be changed. Actually the only way that you can change it is by having it flushed the same way you flush a radiator, it has to be sucked out by a machine.
You add fluid at the same place you check the fluid level. Takes a special funnel. If there is no place to check the level, then it is a sealed for life transmission.
I dont think manual transmission cars use transmission fluid.
This manual transmission does not have a dipstick. You check the oil level through a fill plug in the side of the case.This manual transmission does not have a dipstick. You check the oil level through a fill plug in the side of the case.
Should be a plug on the side of the transmission - fill to this level
For a 2002 Chevrolet Sunfire with a 2.2L Ecotec engine, the manual typically recommends using approximately 1.5 quarts of gear oil for the manual transmission. It's important to check the transmission dipstick or fill plug to ensure the correct level, as overfilling can cause issues. Always refer to the specific owner's manual or service guide for your vehicle for the most accurate information.
First if it's a Automatic transmission you drive it around some to get it warm then you check the dipstick level if its on the full mark then it's fine. With a manual transmission you have can just check the dipstick.
Same place you check the fluid level. Some have sealed transmissions, there is no dipstick, there is a red knob on top of transmission that says transmission fluid
fill to the plug hole on side of transmission
side of transmission thru speedometer cable port
The manual transmission don't have a dip stick. It has a plug in the side of it that you remove and check the fluid level.
On a 2000 Ford Ranger : On a manual transmission , underneath the vehicle , on the transmission will be a fill plug . With the vehicle level the fill plug is cleaned and removed to check the fluid level ( the fluid level should be at the bottom of the fill plug hole )
