what is the right way to check the fluid on a hondamatic auto tranny from a 91 Civic?

I overfilled the tranny by 3/4 of a liter and drove about 100km's. No slipping or anything and no hard driving but I want to know if I damaged anything.

The fluid level is still above the hash marks on the dipstick after driving 100km's on the highway.

What is the proper way to check the fluid levels.

Thanks

 

when ur at level ground pull out the dipstick and check...

whats more to it?

 

check when hot or cold?

 

Don't you want the car running when you check auto trannies fluid level.
Most of them are that way......Right.

I haven't had a honda auto so don't flame me.

 

Yep, you need the car running to accurately check automatics tranny fluid level.

not in hondas though, the fluid should be hot but the car off.

 

This is to settle this once and for all



sorry if it is a old thread but people will keep asking this question.
