Ok soooo, I feel like an ass posting this but....
I have a leak coming from my passenger output shaft seal. I have a new one on order. So i figured i should top off my tranny, It was leaking for a few weeks. I got 3 quarts of syncromesh from autozone. I got home and threw them in. After all 3 quarts were in, I had a "OH Shiet" thought..
I dunno what i was thinking but i put the tranny fluid in the 19mm plug on the top of the tranny under the shift linkage. Then i realized the fill plug is a 17 and its not on the top..
WTF
So is this going to be a problem? I figure the worst thing i did was overfill it by .6 of a quart. And that should leak out anyway.

This is a 1g AWD..
