you should have 2 dipsticks. 1 for oil and 1 for tranny fluid. the tranny fluid dipstick is going to be the one in the back of the engine compartment.
if you have to add some. use "dot 3 tranny fluid" and a funnel.
check the fluid level with a warmed up tranny and while the eng in idling to get a proper level reading
Sam place you check it.
Unless it has a sealed for life transmission, you put fluid down the dipstick, where you check the fluid level.
Take the dipstick out and put a funnel in, add the transmission fluid. (yes, the fill and check are the same). Wait for it to go down for a while before you check it again.
it should be written down the side of the " dip stick" where you look when you check to see if the fluid is low!

The amount of transmission fluid that is needed after a filter change in a minivan will vary depending on the model and type of van. Usually, one can add three quarts, then start the van and check the levels to see if more is needed. Sometimes it can take up to 5 quarts to get the levels where they should be.
