Replacing the filter MIGHT help this … IF. It is dirty and clogged. But depending on the mileage they transmission may be on its way out. I would not recommend a flush at this point. If warranted, you could take a shot at doing a transmission drain and refill but do not do a flush
Can u share a picture for the exacte level of the oil in ur dip stik , pls, where it must be in the morning when its cold .thanks

Hello, these videos are not always done with my personal vehicles. I don’t have access to this one at this time. But your dipstick will have level markings on it to show you where it needs to be
Thanks bro. Do you need to do the filter ?

@@avkargopal4400 better to do it, it's cheap, get the OEM one, aftermarket ones do not have the Valve, so they interrupt flow when they get too dirty.

Only if you have been keeping up with the fluid change. If you haven’t change it ever or have no idea if it has been changed, just drain and fill. You can cause more damage
I didn't have that many jacks, I just lifted the passenger side up, got to the bolt and put the car back down to let it all drain out.

Did you just service it? And added oil? Or are you asking because your personal vehicle is above the hot line before any service?

Make sure you’re on level ground. If it’s above the cold line when cold or above the hot line when warmed up and after driving a little, then it’s more than likely just overfilled.

Overfilling it can be damaging, so you’ll need to correct it as soon as you can.

You should still be ok. If the fluid is very very dark and has grit in it, then I wouldn’t do the service, but I would change the filter.
