A transmission that is over full (automatic particularly) will fail very soon

A tiny bit over will not cause trouble...

BUT

Any more will cause oil foaming, clutch slippage, oil pump failure, spraying oil out of vents and possible vehicle fire.

Manual trans will do the same thing but are more tolerant to minor over fills.

No you never want to over fill the transmission. Towing something safely does not depend on and amount of fluid in the transmission but by the weight of what you are trying to tow and by what your automobile was designed for. Hope this helps.


How many quarts to fill 2005 Honda Civic Hybrid transmission?

To fill the transmission of a 2005 Honda Civic Hybrid, you'll need approximately 3.5 quarts of Honda ATF-Z1 (or an equivalent transmission fluid). It's important to check the owner's manual for the exact specifications and to ensure proper fluid levels, as overfilling can lead to transmission issues. Always add fluid gradually and check the level with the dipstick to avoid overfilling.

Too much transmission fluid cause slipping?

Yes. Overfilling the transmission fluid may cause problems within the transmission. It could cause abnormal operation within the transmission because the fluid is not performing correctly. Transmission fluid does not compress, while air does and as a result of overfilling, the fluid could become aerated. If you're having tranny trouble, it's best to leave the fluid alone and visit a tranny specialist. They can remove the excess fluid AND determine if any damage has taken place.

How do you fill transmission fluid on a john Deere la 130?

I believe this has a Peerless 801 transmission, and unless you see leaks where it's parked you may not need to fill it. Overfilling a transaxle can be bad for it. I would check with nearest Jon Deere agency.
