I thought that was the transmission fluid. I had no idea the battery was in the back. I never received a manual with my car. I have to take it in to get the oil changed because it say "change oil soon", but the dealer said they did it. I'm not sure I can trust that they did, so I am taking no chances.
Thank you Goose

When do you think that they changed the oil? They may have and not reset the oil life monitor. The tranny is sealed, you will not find a dipstick for the transmission.

They say it was right before I bought it. If I have it done now I would only be a month early. Thanks for the info. I have had problems with my car, but I love it. My tires keep getting low. I think that is why my MPG is around 23. I thought Firestone was a good brand. Oh by the way. LOVE the color of your car!

It's only been 11 hours since it got installed. I will consider problem solved unless otherwise stated by myself here.

Yes, I found and reread all the posts in it looking for a replacement battery.

You mean you let the Service Department see Dory's rear end?
The whole rear end and the whole Service Department!
I had no idea the Dory was a hussy!
