Fluid level on E4OD

I read were the level should be high, an inch or 2, on the dipstick when the engine isn't running.
But while running in park it should be at the correct level.

Mine seems to be vice versa.
If I check it while off, the trans shows about 1/4 inch low on the stick but when running, warm etc, it shows alot higher.

Am I doing something wrong?

Should I go approx 1" high on the stick and see if my problems go away?

Thanks, KO

As long as it's on the mark when it is fully warmed up, running and in park, you will be OK.

The problem is that I can check it while warm and it will show nothing on the stick...
Add one qt and it is an inch or more above full.

Could something be plugged?
