Following some post here on the board, I tilted my car on the driver side using jack stand to overfill. I poured in almost 2 US quarts -- just shy of it.

I used Castrol automatic transmission fluid Type F.

Are they any known negative side effects to overfilling?
How much should you overfill?

Now that I think of it, I could have titled my car the other way when flushing to get more out. When flushing my car was straight.

Thanks for your input.
