Funny you should ask- just this past weekend the transmission started acting up again. I will be joining everyone else by replacing it.

So my buddy found the following; the coolant system was full of the mixed pepto bismol like looking fluid, the transmission fluid was a Pepsi like color which smelled and felt like regular Trans fluid. He flushed the cooling system 20 or so times until all of the oil came out. He drained the Trans f...

I'm fortunate this vehicle is our weekend family truckster. We purchaced it last year as a hunting vehicle for me and because there's ample room in the trunk space for our toddlers gear and my wheelchair. We really enjoy it.

There right around 128,000 miles on it. The other concern is that when we checked the transmission fluid the dipstick is dry. Does the dipstick reach the bottommost part of the transmission? Could it be possible there is no fluid in there?

Radiator/ Trans. Fail Question

Ok, it has been a few days now and reality has set in. Like many others our cooling system and transmission on our 2005 Pathfinder are now contaminated by a beautiful Pepto-Bismol like looking fluid. I've looked around and have not found an answer to this; Our transmission began slipping from a stop...
