Default SOmebody: check auto tranny while HOT or COLD

just need to know in case i overfilled my 97 automatic... Put in about 2.5 quarts instead of 2.9 quarts but we all know that when we drain not all of fluid gets out.

So, checking tranny fluid in neutral in HOT or COLD? somebody take 1 sec and tell me.

Alright, you were right, for auto tranny, helms says check when vehicle is at normal operating temperature.. ie cooling fan comes on.
