Re: 02 05 trans fluid level check - strange.

The seal at dip stick is so tight that it creates a vacuum/air buffer inside the tube preventing the fluid to enter up in the tube if it is a long time since last check. So pulling out, wiping off and inserting the dip stick again will give you correct level.
Many transmission do this.
So you might drain and fill up the transmission again with 3.5q and check the level again.
These transmission performs better with a tad under than over filled.
