There is no secret how to fill it.
the car has to be running at idle.
you open the vent under the tranney and remove the filler cap.
Have them put the fluid in till it streams out of the vent.
let it run for 10 to 15 seconds.
then stop filling the tranney when it stops running.
go and road test your car and chech it again (same procedure as above.)
you will be amased as how much fluid it will take.
make sure that you do not pay for this as its under warenty if you had a leak.
what was leaking the tranny front seal
ask for a new transmsion as they have no servisable parts

the leak was from the oil cooler I installed , not the transmission itself

its sad Uprev cant log the ATF Temp that would be easier than dealing with installing another gauge only for that this.

I think when I did it , it was around 20-25 Celsius I didn't know it would affect the filling to much .

Are you saying you have an external transmission oil cooler installed? Or are you referring to an engine oil cooler? Just making sure, because the two aren't connected.

If you already know this, then my bad, but thought I'd clear the air just in case.

Grats on the times Z eliminator
