What kind of transmission fluid does your Journey take?

In short: The key is to choose the right quantity, quality, and type of lubricant you will use. There are manual transmission fluids and automatic transmission fluids.

Manual transmission fluid

Manual transmission lubricants can be recognized because of their viscosity (their SAE number ) and because of the API GL standards they must meet.

The viscosity of the manual transmission fluid

This information is usually found in the owner's manual . If there is an emergency and you do not know which transmission fluid you should use, you can use a SAE 75W-90 fluid, and your transmission will be safe until you can buy the right one.

Nowadays, there are almost no fluids with only one type of viscosity. Those fluids are called monograde oils. You can find monograde oils that go from SAE 75 to SAE 140.

You will usually find multigrade oils. Multigrade oils can flow as if they had 2 different viscosities since they can be exposed to both low and high temperatures. Because of this, the oil can flow efficiently in both cold and hot temperatures.

Here are some examples of multigrade oils: SAE 75W-80, SAE 75W-90, SAE 80W-90.

API GL standards

You can usually find this information in the owner's manual . If there is an emergency and you do not know which kind of oil you need, you can use a GL-4 oil until you can buy the right one.

Manual transmission fluids meet different API GL standards. The ones currently commercialized are API GL-4 and API GL-5 (the latter is not so common and does not work as a replacement for GL-4). These standards will indicate the properties of the lubricants and we should take them into account when we choose the oil we will use for a refill.

If the recommended standard for your Journey is GL-4, you should use a GL-4 oil; this way the bronze synchronizers of your transmission will not be ruined by the sulfur found in GL-5 oils.

Automatic transmission fluid

Automatic transmission fluids are usually called ATF. They are typically red or green to distinguish them from other types of oils.

You must always use the type of oil recommended in the owner’s manual of your Journey. If there is an emergency and you do not know which oil you should use, you can use the following list as a guide.

⚠ What happens if I do not use the recommended oil for my Journey? Over time, the transmission may get damaged. You will not notice it right away, but you will surely see this after a few thousand miles. You may also notice that the car jerks when you change gears or that such gears feel stiff. If you have an automatic transmission, you may start feeling the clutch slipping when you accelerate. Your car’s fuel consumption may also be increased due to using the wrong type of oil.

The ATF oils currently used are:

• Dexron III : It was used until 2005. It was created for GM cars.
• Dexron VI : This product is the enhanced version of the Dexron III oil. It offers high thermal stability, an excellent performance even with low temperatures, and it is a great antioxidant.
• Mercon V : It was created especially for Ford cars since 1999.
• ATF+3, ATF+4 (MS 7176 and MS 9602): They are mainly used for Jeep, Chrysler, and Dodge cars. The +3 fluid is oil-based, while the +4 fluid is synthetic. The ATF+4 can also be used in most Dodge, Plymouth, BMW, Mercedes, Volkswagen, and Jeep cars.
• Highly Friction Modified ATF: This fluid is mainly recommended for Honda, Acura, Toyota, Jeep, Lexus, and Saturn cars with automatic transmission.
• SP-II, SP-III, SP-IV : These are special oil types for Mitsubishi’s automatic gearboxes.
• Toyota WS (World Spec): They are characterized by their low viscosity. They were developed for automatic Toyota cars.
• DSG fluids: They lubricate, trigger and refrigerate the gear components. They are called DCTF. They were created for DSG transmissions of multiple clutches immersed in oil.
• CVT fluids: These lubricants were designed for CVT transmissions.

How to Effortlessly Check Transmission Fluid in Dodge Journey: A Quick Guide!

The transmission fluid in your Dodge Journey is an essential component that helps your vehicle shift smoothly and efficiently. Checking the transmission fluid regularly is crucial to ensure that it is at the correct level and in good condition. In this article, we will guide you on how to check the transmission fluid in your Dodge Journey.

Step 1: Park your vehicle on a level surface

Before checking the transmission fluid, make sure your Dodge Journey is parked on a level surface. This will ensure an accurate reading and prevent any potential safety hazards.

Step 2: Start the engine and let it idle

Start your Dodge Journey’s engine and let it idle for a few minutes. This will warm up the transmission fluid, allowing for a more accurate reading.

Step 3: Locate the transmission dipstick

Open the hood of your Dodge Journey and locate the transmission dipstick. The dipstick is usually labeled and has a brightly colored handle, making it easy to identify. Refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual if you are unable to locate it.

Step 4: Remove the dipstick and wipe it clean

Once you have located the dipstick, pull it out of the tube and wipe it clean using a lint-free cloth or paper towel. This will ensure an accurate reading of the transmission fluid level.

Step 5: Reinsert the dipstick

After wiping the dipstick clean, reinsert it back into the tube fully. Make sure it is inserted securely to obtain an accurate reading.

Step 6: Check the transmission fluid level

Pull out the dipstick once again and observe the fluid level. The dipstick will have indicators or markings that show the acceptable range for the transmission fluid level. Make sure the fluid is within the recommended range. If the level is low, you may need to add more fluid.

Step 7: Check the fluid condition

While you have the dipstick out, take a close look at the fluid’s color and consistency. The transmission fluid should be a clear red or pink color. If the fluid appears dark, dirty, or has a burnt smell, it may indicate a problem with your transmission that requires further inspection.

Step 8: Add fluid if necessary

If the transmission fluid level is below the recommended range, you will need to add more fluid. Consult your vehicle’s owner’s manual for the correct type of transmission fluid and the appropriate procedure to add it. Be careful not to overfill the transmission, as this can lead to damage.

Step 9: Recheck the fluid level

After adding fluid, repeat the process of checking the fluid level to ensure it is within the acceptable range.

Step 10: Replace the dipstick and close the hood

Once you have confirmed that the transmission fluid level is correct, replace the dipstick back into the tube and close the hood of your Dodge Journey.

Regularly checking and maintaining the transmission fluid in your Dodge Journey is essential for the longevity and performance of your vehicle. By following these steps, you can ensure that your transmission fluid is at the correct level and in good condition.

If you are unsure about checking the transmission fluid yourself or if you notice any abnormalities with the fluid or your vehicle’s performance, it is recommended to consult a professional mechanic for further assistance.

Does your 2009 Dodge Journey have a transmission fluid leak? This video shows how to fix minor transmission fluid leaks in a 2009 Dodge Journey. Your Journey should be running when you check your transmission fluid level, otherwise the fluid level on the dipstick will not be accurate. If your Journey hesitates when shifting gears, is slipping or seems sluggish shifting from one gear to the next (1st to 2nd gear, 2nd to 3rd gear, 3rd to 4th gear, etc.) check your transmission fluid level first. You may fix your Journey transmission by adding some transmission fluid if it is low. Some vehicles are not worth the cost of expensive transmission repairs; if, after adding transmission fluid, you notice that your fluid level is low again, try adding some transmission stop leak to fix the transmission fluid leaks in your Journey.

In Dodge's quest for more performance and better fuel economy, Dodge has been coming out with innovative transmissions on a regular basis. Therefore it is important to use the exact type of transmission fluid stipulated by your Journey's owner’s manual. Many vehicles with manual transmissions do not have a dipstick and their fluid level should be checked by an automotive technician as the car will likely need to be hoisted on a lift.
