Passo 2010 transmission oil dipstick

[robsimson70]

Hi, i have a second hand Toyota Passo 2010 with a CVT gearbox. I can't find the dipstick to check the transmisssion oil. Can someone show or tell me where the dipstick is.

I assume your Toyota Passo has a 1.0 L 1KR-FE engine same like my Toyota Vitz. Toyota hasen't provided any dipstick to check the CVT oil of these cars. The same could only be checked / replaced by a qualified mechanic. I got the CVT oil of my Vitz changed when I bought it last year.

The process followed by the mechanic to check / replace the CVT oil was similar to that described in the below post.

Transmission oil change of Toyota Vitz/Belta/Passo/ (K410 Transmission)

This very good atricle was written by Omer Saleem, i am posting it here with his permission Quite recently I experienced a strange rise in transmission problems with most Toyotas running on the Super CVT-I transmission. I did some research and what I ended up discovering was shocking if nothing else. Most mechanics would not even know that these transmissions DO NOT run on Toyota T-IV or Toyota WS oil but instead require the TOYOTA CVT-TC oil and then there was the common problem I heard that…

I think it is one of THE engines/cars that came from Toyota with the "so called" "Lifetime Oil" that they claim you do not need to change till the life of the car, hence no dipstick to check/change oil. According to Scotty Kilmer, this is just a marketing gag as by "lifetime" they mean until the car is covered under manufacturer warranty, because after that they will not be responsible.
