Another disappointing experience with car repair. I should have learned how to do this stuff when I was younger.
One of my funnest vehicles is slowly leaking tranny fluid from just behind the radiator. Interestingly enough, the leak is mostly based on mileage, not time. That means, add a quart of fluid every 100 miles, but each time I park it only leaves a couple drops behind.
So I take it to a highly rated shop close to home, and they refuse to accept my description. They won't accept the red oil drops on the pavement under the radiator as evidence of a tranny fluid leak. Placing a napkin on the fresh oil drops to verify the color is not scientific enough.
They say they can't see the leak. They give me this shuck and jive about powerwashing the engine and servicing the transfer case ? ! ?
So they're probably no good, or maybe I wasn't quick-witted enough to head off their imaginative but idiotic theories about my vehicle.
