There's a range that the ATF has to be I believe it between 30C to 50C, not a
"specific temp" like 38C.
The point of my post is if you drove the car around and then perform the trans drain and refill, since a lot of the ATF is still in the torque converter the ATF temp is well beyond the "range" that is in the procedure. Running the car with a cold engine and trans during the fill procedure will eventually get you to that "range" that is outlined in the procedure.
