He makes a good point. If you've upgraded your tranny cooler to something bigger than the carton of cigarettes sized stock tranny cooler. Then u need to add tranny fluid. The larger tranny coolers can take up 1 quart of fluid once ur pump starts pushing into it. So even if your dipstick reads full while sitting, its gonna be at least a quart low once it starts filling the tranny cooler. Get it hot and moving then check it while its running in neutral with the parking brake on. My tranny fluid level while sitting is way above all the hash marks. Then drops down to the H hashs while its running and Hot.
