I am having a problem checking my automatic transmission fluid level. It all started when I wanted to drain some of the transmission fluid out of the car, because the level of fluid was too high. It was above the F hole in the HOT section.
At first, I drained 1 1/3 quart of AT fluid out of it. I checked that by filling up an empty quart bottle with AT fluid. Anyway, when I checked the fluid it was way too low. It was below the the L hole on the cold section. When I checked it, the engine was on and I went through all the gears. Then I added 1 quart. It was way too full when I did that. Again, it was above the F hole on the hot section. So, I thought, "wow, that's way too much again, I should remove some more fluid", so I removed 2 quarts(again measuring with an empty quart bottle). Then, I measuring the fluid again and it was way too low(below the L on the COLD section). I then added 1/2 quart and checked it and it is way too low. Each time I checked I went through all the gears. One of the times, I even drove down the road and came back and checked it.
If you do the math on how much I added and removed, it comes out to be equal to removing about 1 1/2 quarts. Does anyone have any suggestions.
