Manual Transmission Fluid

It is not necessary to check the manual transmission fluid level.

A transmission fluid leak is the only reason for fluid loss. If a leak occurs, take the vehicle to your dealer service department and have it repaired as soon as possible. See Recommended Fluids and Lubricants  for the proper fluid to use.
