Transmission fluid mistake

Agreed.
They need a tongue in cheek icon.

 

OP here- update
hi filled 3.75 quarts, got it up to operating temperature and then ended up removing about 0.25 quarts by the fill bolt. been driving the car for a few days, shifts are smooth once again. Glad this worked out, thank you all for the help!

 

Good to hear that you got it sorted out without making it any worse.

Now take a paint pen and write Trans next to the Trans drain plug, and Eng next to the Eng drain plug.

 

Pro move..

 

2020 + check procedure work great for me (thanks Mattleg).For OP don't forget than the oil sump (filter) it's at the bottom of oil pan ,
so doesn't matter if you are 1/2 quart low or so . with that said if you are at 2 quarts + low and you go off road at 45 degree's angle , you will be maybe in trouble...........

 

I doubt op was waiting 2 months for a reply before he did something about the transmission fluid he drained by accident.

 

oups!!! answer at wrong forum. sorry!

 

I did this and mentioned it in another thread and got blasted. Seems to have worked out fine for you.
