To ensure your 2011 Chevy Malibu is running smoothly, it is essential to regularly check the transmission fluid level. This is a key component of the vehicle and can lead to various issues if not maintained properly. Problems such as gear sticking, jerking, hard shifting, shuddering, slipping transmission, and delayed shifts can occur. It is important to address any leaks promptly to avoid further complications. It is recommended to replace the transmission fluid every 30,000 to 60,000 miles to keep the system functioning properly. Neglecting proper maintenance could result in unpleasant sounds and potential damage to the torque converter.

    To verify the transmission fluid level in your 2011 Chevy Malibu, locate the check level bolt on the side of the transmission case. Ensure the car is level, running, and warmed up before checking. This task can be challenging to do in your driveway. Avoid opening it when the vehicle is off, as it may cause a significant fluid loss.

    I wasn't aware that it would leak more when not running. That makes a lot more sense now! What a poorly thought-out design, though!
