The gearbox must be warm while checking the oil level (40-60°C).
Install the car on a horizontal platform. Apply the parking brake. Start the engine and leave it to idle.
Set the gear selector lever to position «N» (neutral).
Remove both dipsticks and wipe with a clean, lint-free cloth.
When installing the probes, keep them strictly vertical. The oil level must be between the two marks. Overfilling of oil is not allowed, as this can lead to malfunctions of the gearbox. If too much oil has been poured in, it must be pumped out or, even better, drained. The difference between the oil level marks corresponds to approximately 0.4 liters. If the oil is very cold or very hot, an error in level estimation is possible. The oil level must be checked every 10,000 km.
