To check the transmission fluid on a Toyota Tercel, start by warming up the engine and then parking the vehicle on a level surface. With the engine running, locate the transmission dipstick, typically found near the back of the engine bay. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert it, and then pull it out again to check the fluid level. The fluid should be within the marked range on the dipstick; if low, add the appropriate type of transmission fluid as specified in the owner’s manual.
