Where does the Tranny fluid go in?

[pasohighlander]

I have a 2004 Highlander V-6 Auto with All wheel drive. The tranny fluid looks low.
My owners manual says nothing about how to check the tranny fluid. I checked it hot in Park with engine running. I don't even see where to put fluid in. The dipstick tube looks too small. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Most automatic transmissions are filled through the dipstick tube. Find a funnel with a small snout, then add fluid slowly. Don’t overfill!

Thanks for the input. I added about 1 and 1/4 quarts through the dipstick tube. I can't believe it was down so much. It has about 60000 miles on it tho'. And I bought it at a dealership about two months ago. You'd think they would service their vehicles before they sold them, but I guess they rushed it through as soon as it came in and we looked at it and bought it.
I checked it hot, after shifting from park to drive thru 1st and back to drive and then park. Hope that was right. Thanks again.

Your checking procedure sounds OK. The dealer could have miss filled the trans. You might keep an eye on the fluid level though, just in case there is a problem.

I am watching it. The last time I checked it was after a 40 mile drive at freeway speeds. It looked to be overfilled by about a quarter of a quart.
So, I guess the time I checked it before, it was not that warmed up.
I'm thinking a quarter quart over is not going to be a problem.
