Do not know where to add transmission fluid

If transmission fluid level is up to specs then the unit is in need of repair.

Use a funnel and pour in the fluid into the transmission dip stick tube. Do it slowly so you don't overfill.

Two litres? Unless you are outside the USA, transmission fluid generally comes in quart containers. If you only added 2 quarts, yes, it's very possible the fluid level is low. However, you don't want to add too much. There should be a dip stick for checking fluid level. Run the vehicle until the engine is good a warm, about 15-20 minutes, and then check the fluid level. Add as needed. But remember, don't add too much. Add a little at a time, as you get close to full.

What do you need to know?If your car is a automatic transmission,then start and let warm up and put in park and check while running,if low,turn off and add,then start and check,use funnel at dipstick hole.If manual transmission,there's a plug on side of transmission,remove plug and see if you can see fluid,put finger in to feel,to add,get a turkey baster,dollar store has them,fill till it comes out.The drain plug is under transmission.

This care does not have a dipstick but can easily be checked at home.

1. 1. Warm the car up to running temperature.
   
2. 2. Park it on a level surface.
   
3. 3. Leave the car running and set the emergency /parking brake. Also set bricks in front and behind the wheels.
   
4. 4. Look on the passenger side of the transmission (underneath the car)
   
5. 5. You will see a 10mm bolt a little bit inward from the right axle on the transmission itself.
   
6. 6. Have a drain pan ready and pull that bolt.
   
7. 7. If fluid comes out it is full.
   
8. 8. If no fluid comes out then add ATF III in the fill port on top of the transmission until the fluid just barely seeps out of that hole you removed the bolt from.
   
9. 9. This port is on top of the transmission (under the hood) and is usually red or black in color.
   
10. 10. The transmission is now full and ready to go.
    

• Oldsmobile says to use Alero "F" transmission fluid but ATF III will work just as well. It has the same friction modifier as the Alero "F" does and is a bit cheaper (price wise) as well.
  

• Hope this helps.

Sound like your torque converter is bad,possibly, or trans is low on fluid.

ok open the hood on the driverside on top of where the transmission and engine join there is a RED CAP
BEFORE U ADD TRANSMISSION FLUID YOU MUST

you have to jack the vehicle up
start the vehicle get to operating temperture
on the final drive side (passenger side of the car)
there is a PLUG 10mm remove that plug
if fluid drips out then its full if not add fluid till it comes out
MAKE SURE THE CAR IS RUNNING
hope this helps you

on the out put housing pass side small plug 11mm wrench remove while car idling on a level surface add correct fluid type until runs out of hole

Your Alero does not have a transmission dip stick. You do not need to check it unless it starts leaking.
