I ordered a new gasket, thinking that this might solve the problem. Today I drained the fluid... and thats when I saw that what should be red and clear, was pink and cloudy!
Arrgh.
My conclusion is that the tranmission cooler ( the one thats inside of the radiator ) has a hole. Once I was off the freeway, the engine temp went up, the pressure increased, and pressureised the transmission, forcing fluid past the pan gasket.
That, is what I think is wrong.
Now I need to decide what to do....Do I buy a new radiatior, or do I see about buying a trans. cooler and plugging the lines at the bottom of the radiator?
Any comments, ideas, suggestions, or even a good joke, are appreciated
thanks!
