So I pulled out of my driveway and i saw a big wet spot......i got under my car and looked and the front right corner or the transmission pan is leaking. Could this just be a gasket or what?

Also this morning on my way to school i pulled out of the drive way in reverse and then put it in drive and it wouldnt go so i was like ****, then i tapped the gas again and it went so i didnt know and i was late for school so i just went on......what could this be?

Oh i have an AOD by the way

yea it probably is your gasket. the reason why it didn't go into gear is because u lost transmission fluid and not having it full can cause your tranny to slip. when you give them a little gas they go into gear but that is not good to do. fix that leak and then make sure it is full of tranny flluid

alright, thats what i was thinkin, should be an easy fix hopefully

yea thats not a big deal. it can get a little messy so be prepared

VERY MESSY

how many quarts of tranny fluid does it hold?

89coupe

13.6 quarts of fluid but after doing the pan u will have to put in at least 5 because it doesn't all drain out just some of it

aode08

4-5
typically 4

take the pan off and repalce the filter as well, the kit is under $20

its an AOD

the whole tranny & torque converter probably takes a good case, but if you just drop the pan about 4 or 5 quarts should fill it.
