Hello all,
This weekend I change a lot of things in my car and now it runs better, I am actually going to post a complete howto with pictures next week.
But I am worried about my transmission. I took the transmission fluid out using an electric pump plugged into the dipstick, we put the fluid in a can (that I don't know if It had anything inside before). We cleaned the pan and changed the filter too.
When we were going to put new transmission fluid, I had read in the forum to put only 2,5 quarts in it. But we measured the fluid inside the can and It was almost 4 quarts. So we put 3.
I drove the car around a 100 miles back home and when I was parking there was a weird noise coming from the hood and when I changed gear, it disappeared. I thought we had put too much fluid or maybe too less?
I really need to know how much fluid I need to put in, is the fluid checked in Park gear? how much can affect the transmission an overfilling? How long does it take to heat the transmission to have a good reading?
Thank you very much, I really need help,
