the difference in cold vs.hot would probably be a maximum of 8-12oz.
only driving a short while will put it near ck. temp (by mfg.)...I overfill mine while cold & let car idle till it comes up to check temp before plugging.
Just don't try to check fluid level with car turned off,,,you'll get wet.
I’m really trying to avoid doing the whole 104 degree and check. I’d really like to just drain, fill back a little more than what came out, drive it, and repeat process a second time to get most all old fluid out.
