Stupid trans cooler!! I was driving home from cartek yesterday..
Car was running beautifully and then...........
It felt like the trans was slipping ever so slightly.I pulled over and shut her down and got my flashlight from the trunk..
Next thing I see is a STREAM of trans fluid comming from the front of my car.I get under the car and what do I see----->Cooler line split and came off the end of the cooler,AHHHHHH!!!!!!!
Good news is I think I caught it in time.
The fluid looked good and smells good comming out of the open line and the stick smelled good too...
God I hope I didnt waste the trans..
The car was starting to run well for me.....
The funny thing is its been on for 2 yrs and no problems.Bad things always seems to happen at the worst time..

Hoping and praying.
