Car shifts fine, until its on the highway and it wont "click" or "lock" into the cruise gear. Usually around 70mph the RPM is around 2.8-3ish and now its around 3.5 and you can hear the engine louder obviously.
What could it be?....

I changed the tranny fluid back around 3k miles ago, and I only put in 2 quarts. the car sat for about a month or two before I started driving it again, and I had read somewhere that my tranny holds almost 3 quarts so I went ahead and I added another quart... or about .8 or a quart or so.
Now I dont know if it was locking into "overdrive" or whatever you want to call it on the highway when it had 2 quarts, but it def doesnt at 3 quarts.
Wtf???

im at work, so I cant check it now.
I know where to look for the oil marks when checking the oil, on the tranny I knew there are 3 X's... where should it be if its the correct amount? I also would assume turning the car on while checking would be the right way to do it.
