Cutlass V6-191 3.1L VIN M SFI (1998)
Fluid - A/T: Description and Operation
NOTICE: Do not overfill. Overfilling will cause foaming, loss of oil and possible damage to the transaxle.
IMPORTANT: When new, automatic transmission oil is red in color. The red dye is to distinguish it from engine oil or anti-freeze. The red dye is
not an indicator of oil quality and is not permanent. While driving the vehicle, the transmission oil will look darker in color. The color may eventually
appear light brown. A dark brown color with a burnt odor indicates oil deterioration and signal a need for a transmission oil change.
Checking oil level, color and condition at regular intervals provides early diagnosis information about the transmission. You can then use this
information to correct a condition that, if not detected early, could result in major transmission repairs.
When adding or changing oil, use only DEXRON(R) III.
