Just for background information...

The total capacity of the transmission is something like 7 quarts or more. The torque converter can't drain, so that's why you drain & fill 3 times. You're only draining 1/3 of the total. You should drive around some and get it mixed up.

That's also why one drain/fill with Dex isn't really a panic situation. But it's not good either.
