My daughter just bought a2008 Chevy HHR and she needs to know how to check the level of transmission fluid. She has an automatic transmission. Please help. Thanks Robin Riche

 

Transmission does not have a dip stick for checking fluid level, they are a sealed unit. They need to be serviced by the stealer or other transmission shops. I have serviced my own 2007 HHR LT but is a pain unless you have access to a lift

 

I know this is a little late to respond, but I have just recently joined from the ChevyHHR.net site.
I am a former GM hourly employee from Windsor Assembly that built the 4T40E automatic trans., involved with the testing and repair. I have a red 2006 LS with the 4T40E
Unless you have a slipping problem or a visible leak from the transmission, it shouldn't require any "checking".
I replaced the original Dexron VI with Royal Purple on the advice of my local Chevy dealer at 50,000 miles. I have no problems with the trans. at all.
