    You should've let the dealership add the fluid.....

    How were you able to determine you were low? Automatics don't have a dipstick.....

    If you knew how to check the level, then you'd know how to add it..??? I'm confused...

    Thank you for your welcome to TW and the website post which showed me the location of the plug and provided the proper procedure for adjusting the fluid level.
    Thanks Again
