Now guys, I believe I'm mechanically inclined, and I've changed the oil in my Teg's automajik tranny before, but, does anyone have any trouble measuring just how much fluid there is in there? Do you run the car till it reaches operating temperature and then turn the engine off and check? This is the method that has been suggested to me.

It seems as though even when there is the correct amount of fluid in there (3 litres for a partial oil change according to the helms manual) the level does not correspond anywhere between the two dots on the dipstick.

I'm sure its because the fill tube has a few curves in it, but the dipstick just shows oil all over it!

I'm afraid of stuffing anything up by adding some oil so i'm just going to swap it out again. Been a year anyway.
