hello would a appreciate advice on a transmission service.
Once refilling ATF fluids, final stage to bring transmission up to temp. 104 - 113 is the vehicle suppose to be running and in gear when pulling the check plug to allow excess ATF fluids to flow to a trickle? Or is vehicle to be turned off once reaching temp. range to do check plug pull?
