g'day fellas, something weird has being happening to my transmission over the last week. Anyway bought this car 6 months back and had a transmission service done, car has been running fine since, done approx 8000 - 9000 kms. Last weekend i was sitting at the lights and saw smoke coming out of the engine bay, so i pulled over. Noticed that there was transmission fluid pissing out of the dipstick tube and that the dip stick was out. Thought nothing of it (thought that i forgot to put dipstick back), checked the fluid, it was at a fine level. Kept driving. When i made it home that day, same thing happened at my driveway. I started getting worried ( at this point fluid was getting frothy) so i ran down to supercrap spent $85 and grabbed 8 litres of transmission fluid and a filter/gasket. changed the fluid and flushed out torque converter. ran fine for a week.
the car has just over 200 clicks on the clock with a full service history, hasnt been thrashed and hasnt been overfilled with transmission fluid!
Here i am again with the same issue! the car is just sitting in the front yard, scared to take it anywhere pissing oil out of the dipstick like vomit (mind you the dipstick is locked in also!. Not sure whats going on. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Cheers
