low trans fluid
low trans fluid
A while ago the drain plug was rattling its way lose but I've looked into that and now it seems that its well in place.
Also, I don't see any spilling out and, when I look at the level it's nice and clear but just keeps getting low and causing sluggish shifts.
Where the hell is it going? Just leaking out and I'm missing it?
Oh jesus, a rear main! http://www.ehow.com/list_7260808_reasons...fluid.html
I sure hope some stop leak fluid can help

Just where in the fuck is all my trans fluid going? This shit is expensive! And worrisome. I thought it was burning up towing around that boat. But even without the trailer I seem to be running low.

I have topped it off to the tune of at least a quart over the last month or so. Keeps on getting low but I swear all I see on the road is motor oil.

Hmm, what? It's in the radiator cooling off?

I'd go under there and look for where it's leaking. The whole underside of the trans is probably coated in motor oil, but any moistness on the sides would be a culprit. There are several things on the sides that can leak, not to mention the pan gasket itself. The "rear main" (either front pump seal or torque converter seal) would be harder to see without cleaning up the motor oil, since it comes out at the bottom where the engine and trans meet. Maybe if you clean the torque converter drain window you'll see some red drops there.
There is a transmission cooler in the radiator. Sometimes it starts leaking both ways (oil into rad and coolant into trans). You'd be able to tell by the color of both.
