I changed my transmission and differential fluid today.
Going by the owner's manual, the car needs 2.3qts of Transmission Fluid and 1.22 Differential Fluid. I used Motul Gear 300 on both. However, when I was filling up my transmission, on my 3rd quart. I have reached almost half of the bottle and it didn't spill out of the fill plug. Now I'm worried that I underfill my transmission. Should I be worried even I did not fill the transmission until fluid spills out considering I have put the right volume of fluid from the owner's manual? |

It's fine. Doesn't need to be perfect. Is the rear sitting lower than the front?

Just worried because everywhere I look, everyone says the same to fill up until it overflows. Now I'm thinking since mine don't overflow, my transmission is underfilled even though I put approximate 2.36quarts(if calculation was perfect) |

Lol I lost sleep thinking about it. I don't have time until next week to top it off. I think I should be fine since I followed the owner's manual

I found that since there's always a bit of spillage plus you won't get 100% of the fluid out of each bottle that it takes a bit more than you'd think. I always just go til it spills out.
I highly doubt you'd hurt anything driving it for a few days. But I'd personally top it off as soon as I had a bit of free time. Only would take 10 min or so to do. |
