Default 05 S4 trans fluid change help

So this all began with a bonehead on my part. In a rush had never changed oil on this car before and somehow missed oil plug and drained trans. Just wasnt looking that far forward. Obviously and Audi noob. Anyway went ahead and bought kit and began process as I read online. Problem is that I can't get the tranny to accept much more than 3qts. After that it just drains out running in gear at temp cold no matter. I did not have the VAG but other than temp monitoring what does this do. I can monitor temp with the temp gun. Help anyone please. What are possible issues. Two things, as I was not anticipating draining tranny fluid I did not measure what came out. Two with just the 3qts in trans won't engage. We forced more in putting a tight fitting so fluid could not flow out it would then engage at about 5qts. As soon as we pulled the fitting it would gush out and we would be below level for trans to work. Stumped.
