If your 2000 Dodge Neon is blowing fluid out of the filler tube, it could be due to overfilling the Transmission Fluid or a malfunctioning transmission vent. When the transmission is overfilled, excess fluid can be forced out under pressure. Additionally, a clogged vent can create pressure buildup, leading to fluid expulsion. It's important to check the fluid level and inspect the venting system to prevent further issues.
Should be a filler plug at side of transmission
Mopar ATF+4
ATF+4 if its a automatic transmission.
If it is an automatic then the fluid is added through the tranny dipstick hole. You will need a long funnel usually. Good luck.
The automatic transmission uses ATF+4. The manual transmission uses a special manual transmission fluid from Mopar.
It is on your passenger side valve cover
There is no definite way to check the ATF in a 2000 Alero. There is a filler cap on the left side of the transaxle, but no dip stick. I changed the filter and fluid in mine recently and measured the drained fluid best I could and replaced it with a like amount plus one and a half quarts. This brought the level that was visible in the filler hole to about two inches below the top. A poor system, at best.
In the transmission.
