svx going downward when starts uphill

this is purely a tranny thing
look gun, when you put the car on P without the hand brake, do you feel a big space in the tranny to when it locks the wheels?

Yeah, there seems to be some space, especially if the ground is not level. I don't know if it's big or not. However, if the ground is not level, I have to use hand break first then release the break, after the car stops moving due to the work of hand break I will put the tranny into "P". Does this indicate something?

It's working completely fine in other cases without any smell.

I checked the fluid, it seems to be full when engine was cold. Do I need to have the engine running and check the tranny fluid again?

Just for the record, the preferred method for checking tranny fluid is idleing in park, with the car warm

let the car set on P, is the difference big?, this is what i mean.
don't use the hand brake, just let the car settle on P

I don't think this will tell you anything. 'Park' is a mechanical thing and doesn't require any hydraulic pressure.

Trust me on this one - I'm well aware of how 'Park' works in these trannies after breaking the parts in my wife's tranny.

You are 100% right this time. After adding some ATF, problem solved. my SVX seems to fly again, is that my illusion?

how come, the fluid level seemed to be fine before
