Q: I went to get an oil change, and the mechanic noticed a leak in my transmission. This was on Saturday. They put more fluid in it.
I went to get an oil change, and the mechanic noticed a leak in my transmission. They put fluids in there and I was fine. I had been checking my fluid, everyday. I even bought fluid. Now I think I have a bigger issue. My car is not going into drive, and all of the fluid I put in, is coming out in a puddle!!
My car has 153500 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
