Transmission fluid and filter change, tech overfilled fluid now transmissions slips when taking off.

It is slipping because it was doing so before
you changed the fluid

Was the car not road tested first & asked you how
many times the fluid was changed since the car was new

If that wasn't done then it will slip worse & now needs
to be rebuilt.

Incompetent mechanic screwed you

First of all make sure you are checking the fluid right. Some people do not know that in order to check transmission fluid the engine needs to be running and the temperature needs to be sort of warm althought you should be able to get a good Idea just by the engine running. In this instance you might have a governer valve that isn't properly working to shift the engine when hydraulic pressure reaches a certain PSI. I would suggest having it flushed and put in new fluid and filter. If this doesn't work the problem is more serious and might need some professional assistance.

SOURCE: How do you change or add transmission fluid in this vehicle?

There is no way to check the fluid level short of removing and disassembling it.. The 96 slx tranny is a sealed system.

SOURCE: Transmission fluid/filter change in 2000 Honda Odyssey

I would not recommend using Dexron III. Honda Odysseys are prone to transmission problems. A drain and fill with Genuine Honda Fluid is Recommended. The drain plug can be removed with a 3/8 ratchet at the bottom of the trans. The fill hole is at the top of the trans. You remove it with a socket on a long extension. The capacity is close to 3 quarts

Nope. There is a drain plug on the transmission case. It is a simple drain and fill. Odyssey transmissions do not have a filter.

SOURCE: 2002 toyota sienna change transmission fluid and

The drain plug is on the bottom of the transmission. Its torqued to 49 nM.
1. Remove tranny oil pan drain plug
2. Drain old fluid (roughly 2-4 quarts)
3. Reinstall drain plug.
4. Measure amount drained in a 99 cent orange juice pitcher from Walmart
5. Pour back the same amount drained using Toyota Type T-IV fluid (available in 1 quart bottles from a Toyota dealer.
6. Start engine and shift slowly through all the gears ending in Park.
7. Check fluid level on the dipstick. Add fluid, if necessary, to bring the level to a point inbetween the COLD and HOT marks on the dipstick.
8. Go for a 20 minute drive and recheck fluid level. Add fluid, if necessary, to bring the level up to,
but not beyond, the upper half of the HOT range on the dipstick.

As in 1973, NO FLUSHING is needed and NO FILTER REPLACEMENT is needed, NO PAN REMOVAL is needed. As, as in 1973 todays Toyotas have a metal mesh filter screen that doesn't ever get clogged except in rare cases of transmission operational abuse, including failure to ever change the fluid for 150,000 miles or more.

How to change filter and what to check when transmission is slipping after being overfilled

Most all transmissions have a overflow line so it will get rid of over filling fluid. When a car or truck has a lot of miles on the transmission and you change the filter it will slip because the new fluid has a cleaner in it and the clutch's will not catch. Good Luck Mike L.

How many quarts of transmission fluid is required for a 2006 Chrysler Pacifica? Can't find it anywhere in the owner's manual.

trasmission fluid rarely need servicing unless it is leaking, you need to start the car and leave it in neutral let it warm up at least 5 minutes then check the dip switch, there is mark where it need to be at. if you overfill it will damage all the seals, and if it is to slow it will start slipping and eventually burn the transmission

Transmission light goes on.put transmission fluid in then the light stops.in about 2 days its on again

Transmission fluid unlike oil usually do not burn up if it was low you probably have a leak. You would not want to overfill a transmission.
You may need a fluid/filter change, the filter may be clogged and limiting the flow of fluid. Take the car in to a dealer and have them read the code, they usually will do code reading for free. Usually transmission fluid is checked when engine is warm and the engine running in park. Do not overfill ..

Transmission slipped when taking off in a 1997 chevy lumina

Consider the following:
Transmission Fluid Level: Is it low? Overfilled? When was last Fluid & Filter Change?
Engine Cooling Properly? The Transmission fluid is cooled inside the Radiator.
Vacuum Line(s) leaking?
I own several 1997 Olds Cutlass Supreme SL's and all have 150k plus miles. Still running strong. If you take care of them, they will take care of you. Worst case is the transmission is in need of repairs. $900 to $1200.

Slightly overfilling the transmission will not damage it. Driving it with almost no fluid in it will. Chances are, the bands in the tranny are burnt, and debris has also clogged the filter screen. It is probably worth trying to have the transmission flushed (traditional flush, NOT reverse power flushed) and the filter screen replaced. This may enable you to get a few more miles out of it. Also, there is a product called Trans-X that might help.

I've got a 2003 Kia Sorento It felt like the trans was slipping - took it to the mechanic and they replaced the rear U-joints and the carrying bearing (said it wasn't the trans); it helped but it still is...

Please first off - take down the vin number - call the dealer - ask about RECALLS.

Once done - take the car to the dealer - tell them you called about recalls and ask them to just show you how to check your auto trans level. Nothing more. If this continues to slip try adding Royal Purple Transmission fluid - IF your fluid has been changed as scheduled and is current. If not - change the fluid and filter - then add [ as the last quart ] Royal Purple to the Transmission after the change. Only to top off - not to overfill so leave one quart shy of full then add the Royal Purple.
Best of it. 178e9d2.gif
