Then park, reverse, drive then park. I use the brakes to simulate a load while going up through M1-M6. Be sure and stop the wheels before selecting drive or reverse.
By then I will check the temp and it will be 90 plus degrees. I just leave it idle in park, unit it hits 100F. Then I pull the overflow plug and watch for fluid to come out - as the oil temp increases. Once it hits 104-105 I plug the overflow port.
Lower the car and go test drive it.

Are you doing this when car is “cold” ? I will be driving it to where it’s getting changed because I HAVE to. Not b/c I want to. Lol. So when my car is at my friends shop on lift. It’ll be well over 104 I’m sure. I was going to just add a tiny bit more than what comes out, and then drive it to go thru all gears, and repeat process a second time to ensure most fluids are new.
Please explain your exact steps , TIA
