AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (4L30±E)
Checking Transmission Fluid Level
and Condition
Checking fluid level and condition (color and odor) at
regular intervals will provide early diagnosis information
about the transmission. This information may be used to
correct a condition that, if not detected early, could result
in major transmission repairs.
IMPORTANT:When new, automatic transmission fluid
is red in color. As the vehicle is driven, the transmission
fluid will begin to look darker in color. The color may
eventually appear light brown.
A dark brown color with burnt odor may indicate
excessive fluid deterioration and signal a need for fluid
change.
Fluid Level
When adding or changing fluid, use only DEXRON )±III.
Refer to
Maintenance and Lubrication in General
Information section for maintenance information and
servicing interval.
CAUTION: DO NOT OVERFILL.
Overfilling will cause foaming, loss of fluid, abnor-
mal shifting and possible damage to the transmis-
sion.
1. Park the vehicle on level ground and apply the parking
brake firmly.
2. Check fluid level with engine running at idle.
NOTE: Be sure that transmission fluid temperature is
below 30
C (86
F).
3. Move the selector lever through all gear ranges.
4. Move the selector lever to ªParkº.
5. Let engine idle for 3 minutes and open the overfill
screw (1).
6. Add released transmission fluid until it flows out over
the overfill screw opening.
7. Let engine idle until a fluid temperature between 32
C
(90
F) and 57
C (135
F) is reached, then close the
overfill screw (1).
Torque: 38 Nwm (28 lb ft)
NOTE: To prevent fluid leaks, the overfill screw and oil
drain screws gasket must be replaced each time these
screws are removed.NOTE: Check transmission fluid temperature with scan
tool.

CAUTION: DO NOT CHECK FLUID LEVEL UNDER
THESE CONDITIONS:

Immediately after driving at sustained highway
speeds.

In heavy city traffic during hot weather.

If vehicle is towing a trailer.
If the vehicle has been operated under these conditions,
shut the engine off and allow the vehicle to ªcoolº for thirty

Test Driving
Some 4L30±E automatic transmission complaints will
require a test drive as a part of the diagnostic procedure.
Some codes will not set unless the vehicle is moving. The
purpose of the test drive is to duplicate the customer's
complaint condition and set a current Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) trouble code. Perform this procedure
before each 4L30±E automatic transmission repair, and
again after repairs are made.
IMPORTANT:

Duplicate the condition under which the customer's
complaint was observed.

Depending on the complaint, the line pressure gauge
and the scan tool may be required during the test
drive.

During the test drive, it is important to record all
necessary data from the areas being monitored, for
use in diagnosis. Also listen for and note any unusual
noises.
The following procedure should be used to test drive
4L30±E automatic transmission complaint vehicles:
1. Turn the ignition ON without starting the engine.
Check that the ªCHECK TRANSº lamp comes on for
approximately 2 seconds and then goes out and
remains out.

If the lamp is flashing, GO TO Check Trans
Indicator in Transmission Control System
(4L30±E) section.
If no serial data is present, GO TO OBD System
Check. Refer to
Driveability and Emissions in
Engine section.

If the lamp stays ON or stays OFF, GO TO ªCheck
Transº Check in Transmission Control System
(4L30±E) section.
2. Drive the vehicle. During the test drive, be sure that
the transmission achieves normal operating
temperature (approx. 20 minutes).
Allow the transmission to go through all of its gear
ranges, checking shift timing and firmness. Duplicate
the owner's complaint condition as closely as
possible during the test drive.
3. If, during the test drive, the ªCHECK TRANSº lamp
comes on, use the scan tool to check for trouble
codes.
4. If, during the test drive, a problem is felt, but the
ªCHECK TRANSº lamp does not come on and no
trouble codes are present, drive the vehicle with the
PCM disconnected (manually shifting the vehicle).

In Manual L, the vehicle operates in first gear.

In Manual 2, the vehicle operates in third gear.

In Manual 3 or ªDº, the vehicle operates in fourth
gear.
If the problem still exists with the PCM disconnected,
refer to
Mechanical/Hydraulic Diagnosis in this
section.
5. If no problem has been found at this point, check all
underhood connections that supply power to the PCM
and ignition fuses. Physically and visually inspect all
the PCM harness connectors for loose or corroded
terminals. Inspect the PCM ground points.

Chart 13: Shudder Only During Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) Applying
StepActionYe sNo
11. TCC shudder is one of the most commonly misdiagnosed
conditions in an automatic transmission. The key to
diagnosing TCC shudder is to note when it happens and under
what conditions. Once the TCC has been fully applied, it is
nearly impossible to make it shudder. TCC shudder (short
burst of noise normally less than 1 second) will only occur
during clutch applying. It is not a steady state condition.
2. Drive until whole drivetrain is at normal operating temperature.
± On 4WD vehicles, the test must be performed with transfer
case selector lever in ª2Hº position.
± Shudder is a short burst of noise normally less than 1 second
in duration, and can be induced by the following maneuver:
3. From coast condition at 50 mph in ªDº range (Normal mode),
depress the throttle to 1/4-1/3 throttle. If present, shudder will
occur within 5 seconds together with TCC application.(The
scan tool may be used to determine the exact time of TCC
applying)

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (4L30±E)
Chart 16: Possible Causes Of
Transmission Fluid Leaks
Before attempting to correct an oil leak, the actual source
of the leak must be determined. In many cases, the
source of the leak may be difficult to determine due to
ªwind flowº around the engine and transmission.
The suspected area should be wiped clean before in-
specting for the source of the leak.Oil leaks around the engine and transmission are gener-
ally carried toward the rear of the vehicle by the air
stream. In determining the source of an oil leak, the fol-
lowing two checks should be made:
1. With the engine running, check for external line
pressure leaks.
2. With the engine off, check for oil leaks due to the
raised oil level caused by drainback of converter oil
into the transmission.
