Transmission Oil. Brake and Clutch Fluid transmission filler bolt. The oil level should be up to the edge of the bolt hole. Feel inside the bolt hole with your finger. If you do not feel any oil, slowly add oil until it starts to run out of the hole. Reinstall the filler bolt, and tighten it securely. The transmission should be drained and refilled with new oil every 24 months or 30,000 miles (48,000 km), whichever comes first. Shorten the service interval to every 12 months or 24,000 km (15,000 miles) under severe driving conditions (see page 101). The brake fluid in the brake and anti-lock brake systems should be replaced every 2 years or 30,000 miles (48,000 km), whichever comes first. Brake System The fluid level should be between the MIN and MAX marks on the side of the reservoir. If the level is at or below the MIN mark, it is an indication that your brake system needs attention. Have the brake system inspected for leaks or worn brake pads. Brake and Clutch Fluid Check the fluid level in the reservoirs monthly. There are up to three reservoirs, depending on which model. They are: Brake fluid reservoir (all models) Clutch fluid reservoir (5-speed manual transmission only) ABS reservoir for cars with ABS option Only use an API Service SF or SG grade motor oil with a viscosity of SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40.

Transmission Oil. Brake and Clutch Fluid
transmission filler bolt. The oil
level should be up to the edge of
the bolt hole. Feel inside the bolt
hole with your finger. If you do
not feel any oil, slowly add oil
until it starts to run out of the
hole. Reinstall the filler bolt, and
tighten it securely.
Only use an API Service SF or SG
grade motor oil with a viscosity
of SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40.
The transmission should be
drained and refilled with new oil
every 24 months or 30,000 miles
(48,000 km), whichever comes
first.
Shorten the service interval to
every 12 months or 24,000 km
(15,000 miles) under severe
drivingconditions (see page
101
).
Brake and Clutch Fluid
Check the fluid level in the
reservoirs monthly. There are up
to three reservoirs, depending
on which model. They are:
Brake fluid reservoir (all
models)
Clutch fluid reservoir (5-speed
manual transmission only)
ABS reservoir for cars with
ABS option
The brake fluid in the brake and
anti-lock brake systems should
be replaced every 2 years or
30,000 miles (48,000 km),
whichever comes first.
Brake System
The fluid level should be
between the MIN and MAX marks
on the side of the reservoir. If the
level is at or below the MIN
mark, it is an indication that your
brake system needs attention.
Have the brake system inspected
for leaks or worn brake pads.
