I spent 10 mins going through the search so I hope I didn't miss it. I have an 03 Tl type s and When I checked the transmission fluid on the dipstick, the fluid is at the bottom of the lower dot. How much fluid am I low???

 

i think like a quart or two, but the best way is to add a little then recheck and repeat as necessary

 

thx...as long as I can start with a quart...did not want to overfill

 

np and do like half quarts or so at first

 

how were you testing it? Car running or off.

 

first thing to do is learn how to check the trans fluid level
It varies by year so read the owner manual for your car

most are drive 15 minutes on freeway at cruising speed-
then get off freeway and park on level safe place
turn engine OFF then check fluid level- between the lines is good - not at max or min- right in the middle zone
You are talking PINTS not quarts!! when adjusting level
If its low there is a leak somewhere

 

Honda atf only if needed

 

exactly what i was gettin ready to say. alot of people check with engine running and wonder why its low..
