Wife Stuck in ATL with Tranny leaking
Wife was taking the camper and her gf's for a weekend camping trip. She called from Atlanta and said her tranny was leaking fluid. They were sitting in Atl traffic when someone told her that fluid was pouring out.
She got off at an exit and long story short. She got the camper taken to their site and the truck to a transmission place. They're saying that the torque converter is probably bad and she's looking at $3000+.
In reading some of the posts here, it sounds like the tranny just might have gotten overheated.
She said it still drove fine, other than the fluid being really low.
Would it still run if the torque converter was "bad"?
I told her not to let them start tearing into the tranny, but to fill it with fluid and see if it is still leaking.
What would you do from here?
Thanks.
