It's a pain in the butt! I made a pump out of a bug sprayer because you pump it in from the bottom. You add 3 bottles then start the car for 10 seconds, repeat that until you have 12 bottles in it ( it's over filled at this point), run the car unlit the trans is 180-200 degrees, remove the drain plug and it will self level, reinstall the plug and you can turn the car off.

Did you measure the temperature somehow? Also, did you have to get a new overflow plug? The tech manual says don't reuse it, so that's why i ask.

Do you need to compensate for an oil cooler?
