AT dipsticks can be deceiving because before when I was checking my Corona pag HOT ok on the mark. I did not know there is a ritual before you check.
Like in the Corona you have to put it on R, N, D, 2, L then back again to park and the engine should be running on a leveled ground at operating temperature. Sa civic ko naman as long it in operating temp go and check na kaagad. Nasanay ako sa civic. When I went to check the corona ayun nasa half mark.
By the way AT are ok naman to run on low oil but not on the low mark for a long period of time basta wag lang matuyuan.
