And.... if you open the filler with the engine OFF, there will be a lot of fluid coming out (as the pump isn't running). You won't be able to put that much fluid back in with the engine OFF... it will run out of the fill hole long before you get the correct amount in.

Drain can be done with the engine off but the fill (and level check) MUST be done with the engine running AND the fluid at temp. No work around for this.
