Hi All,

I installed the trans oil cooler on my MDX, and thought to check the
trans fluid after. It was near the bottom of the range, however it is a
small range and it drives fine. I thought to add a little fluid just to
top it off, and checking the manual it indicates you need to take it to
the dealer.

Does anyone know the best procedure for adding trans fluid to the 3.5L
A/T MDX other than adding it through the dipstick passage?

Thanks, Dave

I'd leave it for a few months and then check again. The difference
between LOW and FULL is only a few ounces.

The easiest way (if it is like the Pilot) is through the dipstick passage,
particularly if is an older model recalled for the oil injection kit.
