Yes check levels when engine hot.

Park up.On level ground.

The fluid level needs to be within the two lower marks when cold, and within the two upper marks when hot.

before I changed it the level was on the top mark put bk in what I took out and it is over the top mark should I check it when it is cold then top up if needed ?

The main thing is to check the level with the engine idling, then refer to post #4.
