    I didn't have that many jacks, I just lifted the passenger side up, got to the bolt and put the car back down to let it all drain out.

      Nothing wrong with that. Gatta do what you gatta do and I can respect that. Safety is #1

      Replacing the filter MIGHT help this … IF. It is dirty and clogged. But depending on the mileage they transmission may be on its way out. I would not recommend a flush at this point. If warranted, you could take a shot at doing a transmission drain and refill but do not do a flush

      Hello, these videos are not always done with my personal vehicles. I don’t have access to this one at this time. But your dipstick will have level markings on it to show you where it needs to be

    What about 143,000? Too late?

      You should still be ok. If the fluid is very very dark and has grit in it, then I wouldn’t do the service, but I would change the filter.

      Did you just service it? And added oil? Or are you asking because your personal vehicle is above the hot line before any service?

      Make sure you’re on level ground. If it’s above the cold line when cold or above the hot line when warmed up and after driving a little, then it’s more than likely just overfilled.

    • @HandsOnDismantler
      @HandsOnDismantler  9 місяців тому

      Overfilling it can be damaging, so you’ll need to correct it as soon as you can.
