Hey mate,
Yeah it didn't need a lot more, maybe 300ml to get it to recommended level. I did however compress the new braided lines with the bash plate, not enough room under there. I noticed this straight away so the transmission was not run with the lin es compressed.
So I removed the bash plate again and used a hole saw to cut some space out of the plastic board that the AC cooler bolts to. I then rechecked the level of ATF and it was now too much.
To fix that I pulled the new hot side tranny line off the new cooler and put it into a container. Then I turned on the ignition for a second or two and pumped out the excess till I was on the exact required level. Worked well.
