Remove the dipstick and inspect the fluid level. The fluid level should be within the top hole area on the dipstick. 7. If necessary, add fluid in 250ml (1/2 pint) increments through the filler tube until the level is correct. 8. If an overfill occurs, excess fluid should be removed by a qualified technician. An overfill condition of transmission fluid may cause shift and/or engagement concerns and/or possible damage.
