Default Trans fluid level

I just replaced the conductor plate on my SRT6 and am replacing the fluid. Can anyone tell me where the oil mark if any would show after immediately starting the engine. I have been adding 10mg at a time as recommended but jut finally just got it to show on the dipstick. I thought i had it correct but apparently not. And then How long must the car run until it shows on the top half of the stick.

Thanks mike

Default Re: Trans fluid level

This is a bit late, but perhaps it will help. From the service manual

4. Actuate the parking brake. Start engine and let it run at idle speed in selector lever position “P”.
5. Shift through the transmission modes several times with the vehicle stationary and the engine idling
6. Warm up the transmission, wait at least 2 minutes and check the oil level with the engine running. Push the Special Tool 8863A (1) in up to the stop and pull out again, read off oil level, repeat if necessary.
7. Check the transmission oil temperature. NEED THE DRBIII SCAN TOOL TO KNOW THE EXACT TEMP
Note: The true transmission oil temperature can only be read by a scan tool in REVERSE or any forward gear position.
8. The transmission Special Tool 8863A has indicator marks every 10mm. Determine the height of the oil level on the dipstick and using the height, the transmission temperature, and the Transmission Fluid Graph, determine if the transmission oil level is correct.
9. Add or remove oil as necessary and recheck the oil level.
