Cadillac Repair: Cadillac Catera/Transmission fluid, cadillac catera, transmission pan

Question
How do I check the transmission fluid, ands if it's low, where do I put fluid into the transmission?

Answer
You must put the vehicle up on a lift so as the vehicle is perfectly level.

Start the car and let it warm up to operating temp.

with the engine running , Remove the large fill plug on the side of the transmission pan, BE CAREFUL AS FLUID MAY COME OUT AND BURN YOU.

the fluid level is full when it is just at the bottom of the plug hole that you just removed.
