    Automatic transmission fluid leaking.

    Sign...not sure if I connected the bulk head sensor right. But the gear wrench light is on and my car isn't shifting properly. I can drive around but at around 50mph the engine is at 3500 rpm. ATF change itself was uneventful but during changing the sleeve, I accidentally touched those sensor...

    Automatic transmission fluid leaking.

    Hello, my ATF is leaking. I took some photos right about the transmission fluid pan. Not sure what this part is but this is the source of the leak. Is this repairable? Thanks.

    I damaged the front bumper...Which parts do I need?

    Nothing yet...I was planning to go to a junkyard to find spare parts but I have not had the chance to do it yet. Or try this, look at the options. They have reinforcement brackets. I'm not sure if that's what we need. Click on PRODUCT OPTIONS and go through the motions. Let me know if this helps...

    Hey guys, I just want to post about my experience about doing the spark plugs on my 2007 V8. I have dreaded to do this because of the possibility of broken spark plugs.

    Solved Another thread about exhaust manifolds replacement on 4.6 v8.

    Does leaky exhaust manifold shorten the lifespan of the engine? I hear mine tick when I first start up but it goes away as soon as the car is warmed up. It's been a long time. Do I really need to fix it?

    Need Transmission Help

    I didn't put the metal plug back when I was checking the level. I also filled the last 3 Qts of the ATF while the car was on. It got hot pretty fast LOL. I used like 8 Qts when I did my trans 3 months ago.
