I got the car up on 4 jackstands, pretty level ground and start filling her up. Well I when I poured in the bottle ( I bought 2 quarts) I marked where it filled up too on a windsheild washer bottle, same when I poured in the second bottle of D4 ATF. Now the Bently says keep pumping until fluid comes out. Well it also says fluid capasitys are 1.1 quarts for Getrag tranny and 1.3 quarts for ZF Tranny. So im over 1.3 quarts that I marked on my bottle and it still isnt overflowing. So my question would be should I keep putting fluid in or stop and put the fill plug back in. I hope this makes sence.
Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the help. Fill to overflow. And using these StaLube pumps make it easy...also you can measure approx you are putting in because each pump is an ounce...$5 at AutoZone...get one for tranny and diff. You'll thank me.
