Transmission temp needs to between 86 to 122f so you must be fast if its already warm out.
During the fill procedure, when changing between P-R-D-1-2, do the wheels need to be free to rotate, or can the vehicle be on the wheels with your foot on the brake? Based on your post about using drive up ramps, I think they don't need to rotate, but wanted to confirm. Haven't seen this detail mentioned.

From TIS: To set the correct level, it is mandatory that the service function "Transmission control unit: oil adjustment" is performed using the diagnosis system.

Is this essentially the steps you outlined? I haven't hooked up ISTA to see if I can find this procedure yet. Thanks.
