    bad news... transmission fluid leak

    soooo, I just put my new exhaust on yesterday, and it sounds great. no leaks, and I installed the whole thing myself.

    I'm driving down the road today, and my transmission goes out..like, completely empty. sad part is that I out that exhaust on, and barely got to show it off. I'm about 2 months tops away from swapping my motor, and I need to figure out a cheap way to get my car working for the time being.

    i'm leaking transmission fluid badddddd somewhere, and it seems to be in the driver side of my car. which doesn't make any sense to me, because the transmission is on the passenger side of the vehicle. i know i have a hole in the bottom of my transmission, but i patched it up, and the fluid isn't coming from there, because i checked today. but when my friend gave me a ride home, we could see the trail of fluid alllll the way down my street and right into my driveway. does anyone have any idea where the leak could be coming from? does it get "pumped" anywhere besides the transimission?

    any help would be greatly appreciated. my car is my only way to get back and forth to work, and i need real advice. so please try to be nice about it. i'm having a horrible day. lol.

      they run along the bottom edge of the radiator, and connect to the two ports on the underside - as a sort of Transmission Fluid cooler. deffffinitely a possible leak point

        well you could jack up your car again and check to see if it is coming out the holes where the axles plug in to. There are seals there that could have gone bad.

        When you said you checked that hole you patched, are you sure there is still even fluid in there?
