Does my car use only Type G transmission fluid? Why does Volvo make checking the ATF level such a chore? When I wiped the ATF dipstick, it seems that the plastic measuring part (the piece with the MIN and MAX on it) always cathes lint or something, regardless of what cloth you use. I can see tiny, tiny threadlike fibers after wiping the dipstick with cloth--even napkins (the smooth type). Does anyone know what I'm talking about? These are not thick clearly visible fibers, but I'm wonder if they will harm the ATF and the tranny.
