soo... after I had drive shaft, u joints, rear trans seal e.t.c. put in, the shop topped of trans fluid. ran 1500 miles, decided to check . just got off the road,today. truck was hot. I pulled the plug on side of trans on level ground & trans fluid pored out, about 1 qt. ??? should I check again when cold & top back off. or just leave it? I don't see how it could of been over filled,from the shop as it would just come back out the fill hole. is there THAT much difference in fluid level between hot & cold temp? I know temp build pressure, is that it? does filling it cold, put more pressure on the seals when fluid is hot & expands? cause premature leak in seals? I don't know of a any vent to relief pressure in trans, like in the rears.
trans fluid level.
