2013 Buick Regal GS Transmission

[Mommza]

Hi, my car is shifting hard into drive. I wanted to check my transmission fluid but can't figure out how to do it. I've read the owners manual which says I have to take it to a dealer (non open today and really don't want to spend that kind of money) so I watched a lot of videos but I can't find a video for my car. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome. Just noting that I moved this topic out of the community lounge and into the Buick Regal GS forum. Have you had any luck with your search yet?

No I haven't. But thank you very much.

On the Regal, the transmission is to the right of the engine, under the battery.

If you have a 2011-2013 Regal, the only way to check the fluid is to drain it.

If you have a 2014+ Regal, there should be a cap on the transmission with a dipstick on it. Just unscrew it, and take a look.
