I just need the temperature of fluid to add more fluid after the initial fill, after starting the car. Is it 95c for this car?

Hi,
No, that is too hot to check the level. It needs to be between 30C and 40C.
If you look below, I attached the directions for checking and adding fluid. It covers the temperatures.
Take a look through the directions below and let me know if it helps or if you have other questions.
Take care,
Joe
