Guys the auto trans fluid level dipper always shows level way past all the indents. There are the 2 indents (min-lower, max-higher) for the cold reading and higher up there are the 2 indents for hot reading. I have always pulled the dipper out in a cold engine first thing in the morning and the level shows way above the hot max dent. Is this ok? If not how do I drain a bit? Is a flush relatively easy task?

Did you have the engine running when you check it?
