I was afraid you were going to ask that. The procedure is available here in the JTIS which you can download, or do a search for various threads.
Basically, you need the car on a lift or four jackstands. The transmission fluid has to be 30 to 50 deg C. When you remove the fill plug at the right rear of the transmission, with the engine running, fluid will trickle out if it is full. Said fill plug is, of course, right over the exhaust system.
Great design, isn't it?

The error comes back because it sounds like your trans is slipping. There are sensors that measure engine speed into the trans and driveshaft speed out of the trans. If the speeds don't match what they should be an error message occurs. Different than a check engine light that wil stay on. Get it checked out before it gets worse and you're looking at a tow.

Hope this helps.
