Well real quick i was driving down late night and long story short i hit a bad not pot hole but like a high little moutain in the road... ____^^______ like that, well you get the picture and i went over it, well as i went over i tried to swirve to the left but i hit it with the tire, almost like curb checking but at like 10 mph. well the impact was hard enough to knock my cai off the throttle body and my oil light came on, well i pulled over and my car was leaking something which i came to figure out it wasnt oil, it was transmission fluid... it leaked all the tranny fluid out.. now im wondering what happend like what could cause the fluid to come out??? A seal or like a screw (like the oil pan screw) or if i cracked my tranny... The car itself doesnt make n-e noise like clankin and i was able to drive it my driveway and reverse...... I didnt drive it home, i was pulled... N-e suggestions of what could have went wrong!!???? please help.. btw ej8 and my car is lowered... Need help asap got tomorrow off but i have to work on thurs....
Thanks in advance

well you could look under your car and find your answer there

jeffchaisi

yeah jack up the car and put it on jack stands and go under and look no one here can tell you what kinda damage you have unless you look for your self or take some pics and we can tell you what broke

to state the obvious. you would have to do that to find out though

could have poke a hole in the tranny pan, or a line

well it happend tonight about 12:00 am and its to late to jack it up right going to take to dealership thats like 5 mins from my house... i know you guys cant help w/o n-e pics or me looking under the car, but does n-e know if with the impact of the hit maybe a seal came up or the tranny pan screw&gt;&gt; something!! also is it ok to drive it, just to the dealership i mean it does drive... like i said i drove up the driveway but there is no tranny fluid&gt;??? well it hurt it bad to just drive it slow with hazards on just to get it to dealership! ?

i still got warrenty up to 100,000 miles on powertrain! do you think it will cover it ??

whitecat31

Don't drive it. Get it towed. The warranty might cover it. What part of the ground do you see the fluid leaking out? Front or on the side. Oh never mind going to sleep. Good Luck

sohcvtec97

the front like in the middle just to the right of my header where it comes down... hopefully warrenty covers it, if it doenst n-e know about how much it cost for a new tranny pan ?

civictildeath

my bad no tranny pan just casing so you would have to get a whole new one. can find them for like $300

before u take it to the dealership make sure you put your car back to stock (remember u said your car is lowered) put it back to stock or they will VOID the warranty

that really depends on the dealership

the dealership here doesnt care about what you have in your car
they will even do motor swaps for you

heres some pics.. admins have mercy on me ! !!!!




COULD this be it what is circled ??? that hole !




dont know if i can post pics here but please dont flame !

Yikes! I feel sorry for you man. I can not tell what part exactly that hole is in but it look bad. Looks like it scrapped of the corner. Oh wait no thats just the floor pan drains. That hole you circled is suppost to be there, it's just the floor pan underside. Thats if I am looking at it right. Could be wrong. First pic looks like your tranny housing blew up and there should be a peice of metal there. That why you lost all you fluid. Did you find any peices of the tranny on the ground.

Bond

Double post . It's getting too late.
