    Default VR, VERY overfilled gearbox accidently.

    as i said, i accidently overfilled the trans quite a bit, and its leaking like hell when the car is running, the fluid is a stream of fluid, not dripping, a stream! seems to be running down the torque converter cover..

    im pulling the pan off tomorrow and draining all the oil and putting the right amount in, but im worryed i might have stuffed it up, when overfilled quite a bit, is it normal to leak out the torque converter cover? well at least run down the torque converter cover.

    i hate Autos, i prefer Manuals, but this car was to good for the price, manual conversion coming soonish lol
