How much damage can occur in a transmission with low fluid? It was leaking for a day or so but only slipped a few times. We got it to the mechanic ASAP.
A slipping tranny can sustain more damage than it’s worth, making replacement the only viable option.
But you got your addressed immediately. You probably saved it. You may want to look in your owner’s manual for the instructions on how to check the fluid for future use, and keep a pint in the garage just in case. Or keep a AAA card handy.
Thanks for your reply… my biggest concern is if the transmission fails early from this loss of fluid. I don’t want pay for a new transmission since the leak was caused by the mechanic when he installed the axles.
