Original post here.
So I figured my transmission was gone and I was in for a huge bill. I had just done some 10,000+ lbs towing and figured my tranny was destroyed. I parked it and walked away in disgust.
Today I threw two quarts of fluid in and amazingly it ran like a champ. Im going to change it all out this weekend.
Moral of the story: check your fluids folks!
The question is: why was your fluid low? You're damn lucky, now find that leak!
