Tranny spittin fluid HELP! My car spit up a good amount of fluid out of the overflow valve hose or whatever its called today. It happened once before when I picked up my car from SpeedInc after a transgo kit install, they said it may be a little extra fluid spittin up. So I checked and rechecked for about a week and the level seemed fine after the first incident. Now it did it again today spit up a good amount too. Does this seem like a line pressure problem where the pressure is to great in the trans and its forcing it to spit up or could it be trans fluid foaming? Im gonna call speedinc tomorrow and try have them resolve this problem. Does anyone have an idea though? THANKS

The fluid is foaming. Foaming fluid "boils", expands and spits out.
It could be the filter is loose and sucking air. Obviously, if the fluid is more than 1 qt low, it can happen.
Get it fixed ASAP. Foaming fluid burns up trannys!
