Yeah, Im going with that. Because i just got my tranny rebuilt at the begining of the year. so there is a chance it was over filled. but i checked all my other fluids and there all perfect and it was about the same color as the tranny fluid. i just put a little more in and put everything back together. And am about to take it for a drive. :]
