It usually takes me several tries to get a good consistent repeatable reading.
A question to the forum, generally driving around a bit will get the ATF temp close enough to 80C for this measurement?
Thanks

You forgot to mention that the car must be on level ground which is very important. You can check by placing a carpenter's level on the door sill.
Also the temperature must be at least 80C when measured or drive the car for 15-20 mins at highway speeds to get to maximum operating temperature.
