I have a 2012 Dodge Durango 3.6L and recently had transmission work done. The transmission was removed/reinstalled, the torque converter and filter/fluid were replaced, and I also had a transmission fluid leak that was fixed.
I’m checking the transmission fluid level now. The fluid temperature is around 170°F. According to the dipstick chart I’m using, the range at that temperature is around 60–70.
My reading is around 74–75.
Should I leave it at 74–75, or should I remove some fluid to bring it down closer to 70?
Also, does being at 74–75 actually tell me that it’s a significant amount overfilled, like 1–2+ liters, or is that impossible to determine from the dipstick reading alone?
The transmission is currently shifting and driving normally.
What would you guys do?
