How to Check "Sealed" Transmission Fluid | Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Mopar (62TE)

Описание: Did your dealership tell you your transmission is "maintenance-free" or "sealed for life"? That's a myth designed to get you back into their service bay for a $500 flush. Most 2007-2008 Chrysler Pacificas (and almost all modern Mopar vehicles) don't even come with a transmission dipstick from the factory, leaving you in the dark about your fluid level and quality.

In this video, I show you the secret to checking your own transmission fluid. I'll show you exactly where the "Dealer Use Only" plug is located and the specific universal dipstick tool you need to get an accurate reading. This method works for the Pacifica, Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan, Charger, Challenger, and many Jeep models.

You’ll learn how to read the "Operating Temperature" chart so you don't overfill your transmission, which can be just as bad as running it low. I also break down why you MUST use ATF+4 fluid and how to find the right marks on the universal dipstick (Chart B for the Pacifica!).

The dipstick I use in this video is a "tool," not a permanent part. Don't leave it in the tube! Check your level, then put the original cap back on to keep debris out of your 62TE transmission.
