I'm at my 15K service. The maintenance manual states:

- check manual transaxle oil level and condition
- check tranfer oil level

I tried a search but all I found is procedures for replacing these fluids. Can anyone tell me:

- how to check these levels (is there a dip stick?)
- what color are the original fluids so I would know if mine is discolored or not.
- what else do I check for in the fluid condition other than color?
- anyone have pics or instructions for these check procedures?

Thanks in advance.

 

all your answers are in the "how to"sections.its easy to do yourself.great info there here the link https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=75589

 

Don't check them, change the driveline fluids. It's cheap insurance and a good time to upgrade your tranny fluid to Syncromesh for smoother shifting.

I changed mine at only 3000 miles and will change them again at 7K. A waste? Who cares. I like knowing I have clean fluid.

 

kinda like take multiple showers in one day.. feels like a waste but u know your clean, lol
