How to Check Transmission Fluid in ZF & BorgWarner Transmissions

• Bring the engine and transmission to normal operating temperature, approximately 160°F, and shut off the engine.
• Within 30 seconds of shutting down the engine, remove the transmission dipstick and wipe it clean.
• Reinsert the dipstick fully into the transmission without screwing it in.
• Remove the dipstick and check the fluid level.
• Add or remove transmission fluid as necessary until the level is within the proper operating range.
• Reinstall the dipstick and tighten securely.

Always refer to your transmission manufacturer's instructions for the correct fluid type, capacity, service interval, and fluid-checking procedure.
