If you only put in three quarts thats not near enough, if its coming out the dipstick its possible the vent tube on the top of trans is blocked or crushed, This will prevent air from escaping and cause what you are experiencing.

Soon as i pour the oil it comes out 5 sec later from the dip stick. The car is off.

I would check that the small vent tube at the top of the trans near the bell has not become blocked or collapsed

I agree.

I bet $$$ the vent tube is plugged off. Don't run the car until it takes fluid and shows a level or you'll burn it up. G/L
