Dodge Caravan Transmission

To check transmission fluid on a Dodge Caravan, you need to follow these steps:
– Warm up the engine.
– Find the dipstick.
– Inspect the fluid it should be clean and pink in color.
– Clean and reinsert the dipstick.
– Check the fluid level, adding more if necessary, but avoid overfilling it.

The Dodge Grand Caravan with the 62TE 6-speed automatic transmission holds about 5.5 quarts (5.2 liters) of ATF+4 fluid for a standard drain and refill. A full fluid replacement, including the torque converter, may require up to 9.5 quarts (9 liters).

Most Dodge Grand Caravans from 2008 to 2020 are equipped with the 62TE 6-speed automatic transmission, especially when paired with the 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine. Earlier models (before 2008) used different transmissions such as the 41TE (A604) 4-speed automatic. The exact transmission depends on the model year and engine configuration, but the 62TE is the most common in later models.

Replacing the transmission in a Dodge Grand Caravan typically costs between $2,500 to $7,000 or more depending on whether you opt for a used, rebuilt, or remanufactured unit.
