ok guys, this is about my sister's car, now i know its not a honda in fact is a Plymouth neon, and the reason its an emergencyis when it breaks down, i dont want her to use my car. and the problem is in the transmission(well i assume) and its worse and worse everytime she uses it.
THIS IS AN AUTOMATIC TRANNY car is FWD (duh)
problem #1, it leaks *** loads of transmission fluid and it needs a new Gasket. so thats ok cause we just need to run out and buy a new one.

Big problem:
My sister slows the car down to go to a lite, and as it down shifts the whole herks real hard and as she gets to a full stop she waits for the lite to turn green...GREEN
she takes off and it revs up then the car makes one hell of a loud bumping noise and it jerks foward real hard and goes into the right gear. its getting worse and worse everytime it gets driven and today it almost locked up. any help will be appreaciated, and i know its not a honda but same principles with FWD Trannys, i havent had a chance to open it up yet to see whats wrong cause i will never have that amount of time in the next few weeks. thanks guys, any help is appreaciated.

 

well if its pissing tranny fluid all over the place like you say it is chances are its to low on fluid to properly engage/shift/downshift so its klunking and doing all sorts of **** like that.

top it up with fluid and try again. if its still doing it then there is to much damage inside the tranny and your gonna need to replace it.

 

we've tried that already and it doenst leak that fast, like a whole bottle might leak in 48 hours Anyone else? it feels like a very mechanical problem.

 

anyone? within a week this thing can probaby sieze up fully.

 

help? anyone?
