Default Re: transmission shifting funny

All,

I am having a similar problem with my 04 coupe with 56k miles as well.
I have been noticing a small spot here and there in my garage and am assuming that it is the transmission fluid.

My issue is that if I make a left U-Turn (which I do everyday as I leave work), the tranmission shifts a little funny and one i am done making the U-turn it drives just fine.

I am thinking my transmission fluid is low so having a drain and fill this weekend and have the cup seal and o rings changed and probably the seal and filter change will correct the problem.

I will send an update once I get it done over the weekend.

Since Xfire uses a synthetic transmission fluid, what is the actual color of the fluid? From looking at the fluid spots in the garage, the fluid is transparent as opposed to being red. I had the car checked by the Chrysler dealer about 3000 miles ago and they didn't mention of any leaks what so ever.

Paul
