looking for help / directions on how to add transmission fluid to my 1999 corvette. I'm going to do a complete fluid, filter and gasket change and dont know how to fill or check the level.

Now correct me if I'm wrong, but the way you tell when it's full is when the fluid starts to pour out while you are filling in the same fill hole right
?

and warm

I would assume that is so the fluid flows easier?

no
hot fluid expands
if you do it cold, you will over fill
