Simple oil change question...
Tuesday, August 23, 2005 3:01 PM
In the owners manual for my 1998 Cavalier 2.4L 5-spd, it says the oil level I should fill to is 4 quarts... does this level also account for the transmission, or is the transmission fill seperate? The manual isn't very specific with that, and I don't wanna ignore my tranny.

On the 1998 Z24, the transmission is 5 years or 100,000 miles. Just can't go by the mileage. I had mine done in 2003 with a little over 55,000 miles.

it probably was serviced last time it was in the shop then. I didn't drive it then, and I didn't take it to the shop, so I have no clue. All I know is that it feels to me like the tranny needs to be serviced.

its not hard to change it, so just give yourself the peace of mind and do it



You'll never touch God's hand
You'll never taste God's breath
Because you'll never see the second coming
Life's too short to be focused on insanity
I've seen the ways of God
I'll take the devil any day
Hail Satan
