#### CHECKING FLUID LEVEL

With the vehicle on a level surface, place a drain pan under the vehicle and remove the oil filler plug. The transaxle is correctly filled if the oil just begins to run out of the hole or is level with the bottom of the fill hole.

On vehicles without a filler plug, remove the speedometer cable from the transaxle case. Check that the fluid level is within 0.35 in. of the inside case lip. On the 4WD Stanza remove filler plug and using a straight wire check that the level is 3.82–4.13 in. (97–105mm) from the top of the housing.
