Hello, I don't own an st but hoping you all have some info that helps.

Wife has a 22 Timberline with the 10R60 that's been experiencing what I think she's trying to explain as slipping in the transmission. I have not been able to get it to do it while I'm driving but she says it feels like it's in an extremely low gear and jerks. Then it will go away and shift fine. I did some research and found the dip stick which was awful while it was hot this is after a 15 min drive in 90* weather at highway speeds. Can anyone tell me if this is low for the 10r60? Thanks in advance

You should be between 3 and 4.5 with the fluid temp north of 200°. If your fluid isn’t hot enough it will read low.

The fluid was up to temperature. So if I understand what you're saying this is showing low?

Thank you. And I'm assuming the only way to get any in there is through the same hole the dipstick came out of. What an absolute terrible design by the way.
