Newer transmission seems to have no dipstick to check the fluid level. If you have a low fluid level it is difficult to say what level it is. In this video you will learn how you can check your transmission fluid level.

Your procedure neglects the fluid temperature required for the leak/drip test to be done. Due to fluid expansion, the level must be checked at the right temperature band. If checked while too cool you may end up overfilling. If checked too hot you are likely to run out some fluid and end up underfilling. Without a capable instrument to check for the prescribed fluid temperature: OBD2 terminals (usually 4 and 13) may be bridged/connected, start car, move shifter from P to D and back to P, swiftly move the shifter between D and N (about 4 times) then back to P. The D indicator in the combination meter comes on steady (for ready), Flashing (for too hot), and does not show if too cold (kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmqaho2Onc10oZI).. Once a steady D shows, remove obd connector and carry out drip test.

Very important to use the correct CVT fluid! Either TC or FE, it's marked on the filler plug. AND good practice is to loosen the filler plug first, to be sure you can undo it! And of course, follow Toyota's procedure for this job; it isn't as simple as shown here.

@@ShelDockToyotaVitz Like Brown said, because of that comment I never changed my transmission oil and now my car 3 cylinder vitz running very slow. It goes 5km/h up hill and max 70km/h down hill. I toke it to a mechanic and he said my throttle body is faulty and it's the cause of my problem which I'm really finding it hard to believe but I'm thinking of changing the ATF 1st.

@@abrahambioblack1960 hopefully you don't have any damage done to the transmission if it's slipping and you are still driving it like that. Slipping will cause wear that will destroy the transmission if it is not rectified immediately. I strongly recommend that you change the transmission fluid as soon as possible. If the slipping continues it could mean that the transmission may need changing.

Unscrew the bung under the transmission and remove it- ensure a catchcan is there to catch the overflowing fluid. Pour the fluid in at the screw shown in the video until it start to flow out through the bung, stop and replace the bung.

@ShelDockToyotaVitz7 ай бұрын
CVT FE is usually used for more advanced CVT transmission for mainly fuel efficiency in Toyota Vehicles. The TC CVT is for the older CVT system for Toyota vehicles. Newer Toyota vehicles would use the CVT FE transmission fluid.

It is good to have a manual for your vehicle because it tells you exactly how much transmission fluid or gear box fluid to use. If you do not have a manual for your vehicle you can drain the fluid in a drain can then use this fluid as your means of measuring the new fluid to go in your transmission or gear box. Hopefully this can help.

Newer vehicles are made with CVT transmission. This type of transmission is usually compact and smaller than a automatic transmission- older transmission type. Because CVT uses a belt and pulley system you hardly notice when there is a change in gear however with the automatic transmission, when the gear is changing there is a slight delay in power..
