The dipstick comes with marks on it to highlight what the transmission fluid level is at the time. The correct level of transmission fluid is the the mark closest to the top of the dipstick or full mark.

When you take out the dipstick, wipe it off with a towel. After, dip it back in and take it out to see if the hole is covered. If it is your level is good, if not, fill it up some.

On a dipstick, the correct transmission fluid level should fall between the full and the add marks. If the fluid level is low, the transmission may slip. If the level is too high, the fluid can become mixed with air. This will not only cause shifting problems, but will also cause slippage and noise.

The fluid level should be in the cross hatched area of the dipstick. Make sure the transmission is warm and the car is parked on a level surface.

The levels should be clearly marked on the dipstick. There will be a crosshatched area the shows the minimum and maximum level where it should be.

On the dip stick it should be clearly labeled. Warnings like "refill" and "Full" are marked on the side of the stick.

There should be levels marked on the dipstick itself. If not just make sure that the fluid level lands in the crosshatched area when warm or in between the notches.

The correct transmission should be around fifty or sixty depending of how much you use your vehicle in one day. If you use it more the level could be a little lower.
