I discovered there is a check plug on the transmission. Look on the right hand side of the transmission where the drive shaft goes out to the right wheel. It is located about 3 inches above the pan & sits under the final drive. Initially fill till fluid comes out. Then start car & fill again till fluid comes out. Recheck when the transmission is fully warm. Good luck.
