If an overfill occurs, excess fluid
should be removed by a qualified
technician.
An overfill condition of

shift and/or engagement concerns and/or possible damage.
Do not use supplemental transmission fluid additives, treatments or
cleaning agents. The use of these materials may affect transmission
operation and result in damage to internal transmission components.
