Here's what happened noticed after car boiled on an hour trip that when I opened the bonnet the radiator hose blew off that's a 1st for me btw..anyhow noticed white milky
water managed to limp car home anyhow next day dumped water again I thought it was coming from motor but smelt like transmission oil.
Separated transmission lines and saw it was a blown radiator water leaked into tranny.
So I've drained out all oil 20 liters went through it for the flush.
Changed transmission oil dex6 and filter
Topped tranny oil up from left hand side of car refil while cars level and 50 degrees in temp put plug back on while engine running so I don't get blow back from torque converter.
Took it for a 30 minute drive found going up hills its slipping changes gears smoothly..
Thoughts suggested torque converter stuffed or EPC Pressure Control Solenoid
