[V8] How do i check my transmission

[jpb3]

You can use the standard practice utilized by countless V8 owners over
the years here on the list.

Get the tranny warm, pull the plug, let it drain until it drips no
more, fill with 4 Qts of your fav blend of compatible ATF.  You are
now good to go.

I have used this procedure many times and bought the OEM dipstick
which verifies it's accuracy.

Alldata.com  list that audi has a service tool to do this not sure if still available or not or if the public can ever order it. Also I know how to drain the transmission but have not got a sure answer to how much correct to put back in.
