Where is the oil going?

I changed the transmission oil filter on my GN and refilled the trans with 4 quarts of oil and checked the oil level with the engine idling in Park. The dip stick showed the oil was at the correct level. I then did the same thing to my other car and the dip stick did not show any oil at all. Is there a variation of GN transmissions with different oil capacities? Just don't want to take the chance of overfilling the trans.
 
If there are no leaks evident I bet the other car was low before teh change
 
If it's not showing any reading on stick I wouldn't worry about overfilling. You should shuttle the Trans through the gears, Drive & Reverse while idling to remove any air pockets also. Other car may have just lost more fluid while pan was off or was low as stated above.
 
Thank you all for the replies. I'll just add another quart and see where it goes from here.
