This is a quick excerpt from my thread started yesterday. I think I need a fast answer on this one.
This happened after I got my car back from getting the tranny rebuilt. Don't like the shop or his practices. But that is another rant all together. Here is my issue:
The car started blowing tranny fluid after about 10 minutes at highway speeds. I took it back and had them check for a leak. They told me (next day) that the car was overserviced and the AW70 has a overflow for just that reason. When I asked why the car was overserviced in the first freaking place, I was told that since the torque converter was replaced the extra fluid was needed to fill this up. I'm a fairly good mechanic (I work on helicopters by day) but the insides of a tranny is magic to me. Is he blowing smoke up my skirt?
Update from Today: Wife drove car and now reports that it's not shifting when it should. Sounds like low fluid to me. Raining out so don't feel like getting soaked while checking fluid.
Help!
