The Toyota Tundra features a transmission that doesn't require maintenance and doesn't come with a dipstick. To check the transmission fluid level, you need to find the check valve on the oil pan. If you encounter any issues, it's best to have a professional mechanic inspect it, and the fluid should be replaced by the dealership every 30,000 miles. This practice is becoming more common in vehicles to assist those unfamiliar with checking their oil, making it more user-friendly. The system will clearly alert you if oil is needed, prompting monthly checks due to past problems with SUVs and their transmissions. The recommended fluid for the automatic transmission is F-TYPE AFT fluid, which is approved for M2C33 use.
How do you refill the transmission fluid in a 2008 Toyota Tundra and determine when it's at the correct level?
You can locate the transmission fluid dipstick for the Toyota Tundra inside the reservoir.
I recently purchased a 2007 Toyota Tundra with a 4.7-liter engine and 240,000 miles on it. Today, I am experiencing issues with the transmission not engaging, so I need to check the transmission fluid. However, I am struggling to find instructions on how to do so because the truck did not come with an owner's manual.
Hey Gratson D, like Evelyn, I'm curious about the closed transmission on Toyota Tundras, specifically the 5.7L engine with the Jackson Hewitt air injection bypass system. I'm looking for advice on changing or adding transmission fluid easily. I have the budget to remove all 4 catalytic converters and put them back in the original position. I also crawled under the vehicle to check for leaks, worn parts like ball joints, u joints, and loose calipers. Strangely, I've never seen a dipstick for the transmission fluid. Can you please send me a photo to help me identify it? Thanks in advance! You can send the photo here or offline at 4056375490.
