Drive around for about 10 minutes and then park your car while the engine is running. Check the fluid at the HOT level. Fill accordingly.

^yup. maybe even longer than 10 minutes for it to get nice and hot.

a drain and refill takes about 2 and 1/8 quarts for me. make sure you use toyota type 4 fluid.

most importantly, make sure your car is parked at level grounds when checking your fluid level...may sound basic but important.

3 qts should be good enough.. make sure not to overfill it because some costly repairs might just pop up.. so make sure.. good luck!
