Question Transmission

I just had my 4L60E rebuilt and i got all my lines flushed and another converter. How many qt. of trans fluid should go in? i put 11 and it's just at the bottom of the stick, is that normal? also for 3 days ago it was at propper level when i had that in, i was driving yesterday and my trans started the same problems it was having to cause me to rebuild it... grrr... so i checked the fluid and it is normal color but just low.. what should i do? thanks for reading

anyone out there with more ideas? i filled it up so it is at full when hot and running, still have the same problem. The fluid is good too so i don't think i blew a seal or anything... does the fluid change color if you burn a clutch? The fluid smells normal too... any help would be great! thanks again

Check the color of your coolant. If it was green, is it still green? Could be a leak in the radiator causing the ATF fluid to go into the engine cooling system.
