Finally got around to changing out the 6 speed transmission fluid/filters on my 13 1500 Ram Bighorn 4x4 (95,000km') and I am curious, as the info is tough to find, imo, where, exactly the level should be on the dipstick when hot? Should the level be between the 2 "HOT" dots at the top of the hashmark area on the dipstick or is anywhere in the middle fine? The transmission fluid change was done at my buddies shop where he allowed the transmission to drain overnight. So far, due to this I believe, I've added 9 liters of Pennzoil ATF+4 but it still isn't to the first hole in the hot area. Should, when the trans is hot at 74-75c (167F), be at or between these 2 hot marks like I've already stated, or is that too much and the middle is fine?
Finding info on this is tough as everything I see is 8 sp, which, as anyone knows, is a whole different animal.
Thanks in advance.
