Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Troubleshooting transmission fluid

My girlfriend drives a 93 eclipse with the 1.8 litre non turbo front wheel drive. The transmission was recently rebuilt and while I was changing the oil I noticed some transmission fluid. So I check it and it's low. Since it's under warranty it's going to be taken in, but I just need to stick some in there and all I have is some ATF+3. Is this the right stuff? Or does it matter? I don't want to screw things up with as expensive as it was the first time.

Check your owners manual thats the best advice I can give you.

She bought the car used and has no manual.

call up the place that did the rebuild and they can tell you what to put in it until you get there... just hope they tell you the right thing over the phone... or you might just leave it alone and let them take car of it when you bring it in.... then they can tell how much it lost via the leak......

Some auto parts stores and lube shops have manuals that will tell them what fluid goes into what parts. The car is new enough that it should still be covered by this manual.
