Default 2011 Equinox LT transmission fluid level

Got a trans fluid leak, how do I verify I'm at appropriate level. Was told fill gearbox up, owners manual says only to take it in. Shifting seems a bit hard but not terrible, mostly until operating temp I'm guessing. Downshifts seems harder than upshifting until ran for a spell.

If you've no dipstick, there is a plug on the driver side of the transmission, usually 11 or 12 MM. You unscrew it and if no fluid comes out it's likely low on ATF. You may have to remove the left front wheel to access it.
