Not sure I want to drive it, can I let it run a bit, shift through PRND32 (can't get to one 1) and then check it?

yes, let your car idle until the engine is up to temp (fully), that should get your trans somewhat warm warm enough to tell if it's ok

I think it was over-filled before but I changed out my trans-cooler lines and a bunch drained out so hopefully I am back down near where I should be.
