    The transmission dipstick may be incorrect. If the transmission oil level appears to be low, first check for the correct dipstick. The transmission dipstick should display a part number 53034117AB. If the part number does not display this number, replace the dipstick with P/N 53034117AB. If oil level is still incorrect, continue with diagnosis.
