Achtung!
If you remember one thing and nothing else from this thread, remember that trans fluid is measured with the car running! This matters (a lot) because fluid settles into the pan as soon as you kill the engine. If you try to check or add fluid with the car not running, you will dump at least a quart (probably 3) of fluid onto the floor. Never remove the fill plug with the engine off.

I'm a complete noob with this (i just got the scanner about an hour ago) but when i select the Auto Trans, vcds gives me an error:
Protocol Keyword: $F18A
I'll get back to you with any other codes related to my original post

Would the TCU detect low ATF and throw a fault code?
