The 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt has a transmission fluid capacity of 3.6 pints for the 5-speed manual, 12.9 quarts for a full fill, and 6.9 quarts for an initial fill with the 4-speed automatic. It is recommended to use Dexron VI fluid. This fluid serves as both oil and hydraulic fluid to aid gear shifts, cooling, and lubrication. It's advisable to change the transmission fluid every 50,000 to 60,000 miles. The cost of the fluid ranges from $8 to $10 per quart depending on the brand and location. If you opt for a mechanic to handle the change, expect labor costs between $60 to $70.
