Unhappy transmission fluid level High !!

Hi All,

I recently changed my transmission fluid and initially the level showed slightly below the halfway mark and i poured another quart.

After couple of days when i checked the level it is now at least couple of centimeters above the upper limit mark !!.. I realize now the drive way is on a slope and it might be the reason..

Any way i don't want to take out the plastic underneath the body again..Is there a way i can suck out the additional fluid ??

Or i don't need to worry abt it ??

Thanks

Get a hand held transfer pump. I use it to put MTF in my 6MT. You can pick one up at an auto store. Put the hose in the top of the fill area and start pumping. Remove out a little at a time, say a pint at first. If you check and your are low, PUT IN FRESH fluid, not what you pumped out.

<< Put the hose in the top of the fill area and start pumping >>
Do you mean from the dip stick hole ?? That's how i filled the transmission fluid ..In the service manual also it is mentioned to fill the new fluid thru dip stick hole..

thanks
