Check Automatic Transmission Fluid Level - 2011 C70

Post by olundy673 »

I have looked for an answer to a problem I am having and I cannot quite seem to find an answer. I just drained and flushed my automatic transmission fluid in my 100K mile 2011 C70. It has the transmission with the little yellow dipstick down below the engine computer. I replaced approximately the same amount of transmission fluid that I removed, but I cannot be sure I have it exactly. I know it should be checked when the fluid is warmed up after driving. Should it be checked with the engine running or off? With the engine off, it is about half way up the dipstick. With the engine running, it is not even touching the stick. Any advice will be helpful.
