i think it happens when it is too cold or too hot, both.

im not totally sure but i think you check the cold side when the engine has been off(or cold) and the hot side when it has been running a while.

Turn ur car on and put it in park, let it run for a while till your engine gets warm then check the dipstick the H side and see where its at. put some if it needs some, also your gear stuff wont fix right away you have to give it a little time to adapt.
